    Handbrake,

    Did you plug the router or switch into the wall outlet yet?

    cat5e straight through cable

    pin1 = tx+
    pin2 = tx-
    pin3 = rx+
    pin6 = rx-

    For a router, has the interface been configured and the no shut command executed on the interface?

    You need to calculate your idlepc values.

    Agreed. I had the exact same issue. Also how many routers are you running? You may need to up the ram in your machine at some point to get more routers running in gns3.

    Or ditch GNS3. Seriously, it's a breeze to configure the net files. If you can't handle that, you shouldn't be working with Cisco ;)

    Check out the ghostios and sparsemem settings as well.
