Hi guys! This is my first post and I'd love if you could help me with a few things! I'm not a complete moron(;P) but there's something that is buggin' me with my brand new computer.
I get these freakish random reboots and I'm not sure what can cause them. Although nothing seems to be wrong in prime95, memtest and Everest doesn't show anything specific either.
I've tried to swap the RAM modules and only using one.
I've tried switching to another PSU.
I've tried with another graphics card.
I've tried in all kids of operative systems and live-cd's.
But nothing seems to help!
After a good hour of "googling" I read that it might be the motherboard that doesn't set the voltages right. So. Here I am, trying to figure out how to flash my BIOS with the new beta version available on MSI's forum (that I read in the first post in this thread). I tried to flash with my USB memory stick, but I get a message telling me that the partitions are faulty. Is there any way I might flash with a floppy disk instead?! I know how to make a start-disk but where do I put the BIOS? :o
Please, I'm kinda desperate for help here! Is there someone that has had the exact(or same) problem that I have? And do you have a solution?! : (
My specs are:
Motherboard: MSI P7N Diamond, nForce-780i
CPU: Intel Core 2 Quad Q6600 2.4GHz
RAM: Corsair TWIN2X4096-8500C5DF Dominator 2x2048MB (with the fan)
GFX: XFX GeForce 9800GTX 740M 512MB XXX
PSU: CORSAIR TX 750W (ought to give my system more than enough power!)
HDD: Western Digital Raptor 74GB 10000rpm 16MB cache
Also: I'm sorry for my typing, I'm Swedish so there's probably a few errors.
