roobomb Posted September 21, 2006 Posted September 21, 2006 Got all my stuff delivered last night, and got it setup without a hitch! I didn't have to do anything in the BIOS to get it up and running, XP installed first try, got everything going. Only hiccup was that the Marvell ethernet controller didn't want to play nice with my Netgear Wireless adapter, but I just disabled it in the BIOS, and now no trouble. I'll start some stress testing tonight, but for now I've got this dumb thing called a job I've got to take care of... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ganders75 Posted September 21, 2006 Posted September 21, 2006 Congrats ;o) One thought - did you follow the build guide? I guess you're up and running, so no point going back now ;o) but you should make sure that you run MemTest86+ from the BIOS - usually before you attempt to install the OS. If you aren't Memtest stable you may have corrupted some of the install files - which will lead to problems later on... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
dr_bowtie Posted September 21, 2006 Posted September 21, 2006 just make sure you set the cpu frequency and voltage manually as well as other settings that need be...I think on that board you can leave the LDT multi on auto...

pbcustom98 Posted September 21, 2006 Posted September 21, 2006 congrats! i had the thing happen with both of my DFI boards (one SLI-DR, on UT Ultra-D), near plug and play, with overclocking options galore. be careful, the water may suck you in for good.
