 Need to check power supply or case.
 In Japan they use 100V, while most power supplies are designed for
115V, which is used in U.S. So combination of power supply and mainboard
causes a problem.
 When I assembled a K6-200 machine, I first selected Aopen motherboard.
But it doesn't work. I was told I need to change case or motherboard.
Both parts are OK. But the combination is bad. So I changed motherboard.
Now I use ASUS motherboard.
 It's not rational. But it often happens in Japan.
