you tried it with more vcore?

Yup

1.5V no help

Completely stable at 1.25V @ 223FSB so I'm pretty sure it's not the CPU (at least not clock limitation-wise - maybe something like the B1 Dothans).

Also the multi I'd like :)

w00t I discovered how to turn off RAID. You set in the bios for IDE and SATA2 to be disabled, and they remain enabled and RAID gets disabled. :D

The boot order still seems completely unpredictable. Ok I can't figure out at all how to get it to boot from HDD.


It's HDD, HDD, HDD - all it does is Boot from CD..., Boot from CD..., then does the LAN thing...wtf???

Done, no luck - cleared CMOS, no luck. :@

I think that might have been my HDD (Giga:banana::banana::banana::banana: ss)

Trying a conventional harddrive

yeah the conventional harddrive worked.

My 4 gigs of Gskills are dead - never ran them a MHz above stock and then they just die on me. Just testing them on my server. No post.

ah right
:p:
iam such a noobie sometimes

I've spoken to Aopen about all these problems I'm having with my board and they said I should rma it...:D...

Hopefully I get a better clocking one. :D

i have a very bad problem, because i can't get in windows with my 7900 GTX videocard. if i boot with the 7900 GTX the system hangs up after the windows loading screen and then i get a black screen, but the system doesn't crash, because i can hear the hdd's :>
if i boot with my SIS PCI 4 MB videocard i can get in windows without any problems ;(

Could be your PSU. I would try to get into safemod with 7900. If it crashes it means there is probably not enough power or faulty card. I would also reinstall windows with 7900 in the sys if its not the PSU issue
