opti Posted June 4, 2006 Posted June 4, 2006 I see your cpu is overclocked, does it do this at stock speeds? I have a 146, a 175 and now a 146 agian and the first two did excactly that when they were overclocked, even when they were prime stable. I think it has something to do with the ICM, integrated memory controller, some opty's must just have fairly weak ones and react differently to overclocking. Whereas I had a 3500+ Venice that did 2850mhz, and it never happened on that cpu. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

lowboy Posted June 4, 2006 Posted June 4, 2006 Go into bios and set 2sec delay on hdd and see if that helps. I had to set the delay or sometimes it would hang. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

opti Posted June 5, 2006 Posted June 5, 2006 Man you must have jinxed me. I put another hhd in and loaded Windows onto it as I have long shutdown problems. I wanted to try another hdd to see if that was the problem but it wasn't. I connected up my original hdd's and bam! It gets stuck at the last led, even before the boot screen. I did all the usual and to no prevail. So what I did to get it going was actually remove the bios chip as well as everything else to clear the cmos, wait half hour then put it all back and now I'm up and running. Go figure!! What bios version do you have btw? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
