Well WOOHOO!!!! MORE PROBS!!! Got the new board, and still couldnt install windows, although it would go farther than th elast, but it would lock up. After askinf in another thread, i learned that there is a known bug with setting USB mouse and keyboard support to BIOS instead of OS. SO now i get windows installed, updated and some of my programs installed.
I start playing WoW, i get a few random program crashes throughout the evening. I defrag reinstall all my drivers, and run some tests. Sandra Shows my memory being fine, getting 5700 in the bandwidth at stock speeds, but Super Pi keeps getting not exact in round, whether i do 1m or 32M. I used My ultimate boot CD to run memtest and some other util called windows memory diagnostics or something like that. No errors with either after letting each run for a while. So im thinking SPi might just be borked, or this board is unstable (leaning towards that ATM)
Oh and Ive noticed a rather annoying little bug also. A couple times the computer locked, only once when windows was shutting down, and a few times before i discovered the USB mouse thing when i tryed to load windows). Anyway, when you have to do a hard power off, the system will do nothing when u hit the on switch again, unless you unplug the computer. After that, all is fine, but its god damn annoying. HOW COULD SO MANY STUPID ERRORS GET THROUGH QUALITY CONTROL/ TESTING??? I think abit really rushed this board out. I may damn well put my RMA'd Evga back in here when i get it back. This is buggier than a fricken rain forest. Hello refund RMA to newegg as soon as i get my evga back!
