Well - all was good with the Vista 64-bit install, and everything was fine running the 8800GTX card. Tried the new 4870X2 and it borked my board again ... exact same symptoms as last night. Tried to CLR CMOS, reset jumper to second BIOS, and board would not run, even with the 8800GTX back instead of the 4870X2. So now, trying the "unplug, remove the battery, and let it sit" fix.
Don't know if I have a bad 4870X2, or just something I need to set in the BIOS? My other 4870X2 runs fine with this board. Only difference is it is water cooled, so don't know if there is an issue with the fan control on the new card?
Don't mean to clutter up this OC thread with my basic issues, so I'll start a new thread in the Video section. But hoping someone here might have a clue.
EDIT: Put the battery back in after an hour, and now I'm up and running again with the 8800GTX. Will try the other 4870X2 tomorrow when I set up the water cooling loop again. Maybe I'll also try flashing a newer BIOS.
