When i install Windows XP x64 (SP2) in my rig, everything is fine until i try shutdown or reset the system. Shutdown -> power on leads to 88 code, board dead. Reset leads to system hangs, FF code and blank screen. Only reset cmos with jumper or unplug and replug the PSU wire restore the system. The workaround that solve this problem is play with pcie roots settings.
Haven't experienced such issue before, had one that was close with shutdown overnight and power up next day = postcode 75 but that was due to incorrect memory settings/voltages when i load my default set profile from cmos reloaded. Overwrote my default saved profile which i usually reload with correct memory voltages/multiplier and no more probs.

I'll try tonight a clean install..

DVD that came with the board wont load, not in XP nor Vista. All other DVD's i tried are fine though...

Grinch i have 3x1GB 1866 Dominators and 3x1GB Ballistix with D9GTR and both sets run ok
Did both of you confirm after popping up the battery than when you booted back into bios all cmos reloaded slots were cleared before flashing bios ?

Strange about dvd-rom, are you guys running IDE or SATA DVD drives and do you have ACHI/RAID or IDE mode set ?

As for me, been doing some video encoding lately at comfortable 4009mhz at 1.328-1.344v and interesting results



testing new 01/14 and 01/20 beta bioses soon
