Yep. Ive been a user on this thread since page 145 or so, when I bought it and got my e6600. Audio, 1394, and bottom nics are disabled. jmicron is disabled as well. All the basic debugging is done, and all that's left is swapping the q6700 with the e6600 to cross out motherboard or cpu.

What I don't understand is why memtest86 works fine when I boot it, and also the text based installer, but not when the graphical part of the OS wants to start.

Hmm i really hope my 8800gtx isnt going.
