Mine is giving me all sorts of problems with the
RAM, and it has killed one set and I think the second set is on it's way out.
If it's any consolation, the syptoms are the same as yours. The only way I can get it to start is to either unplug the
PSU, or turn the
PSU switch off for a few seconds.
This is all too much like the commando in every way - fugly!
Lets hope they come up with a decent
BIOS in the next few days.
Something for you to try, and see if yours does the same as mine...
400x9 (with whatever voltage you need) 5-5-5-15 800Mhz (stock volts for your
ram) = stable for me.
Then go into the
bios and change to;
400x9 (with whatever voltage you need) 4-4-4-12 800Mhz (whatever voltage you need) - will it boot? Mine wont
Yet, it will boot with 3-3-3-3.
Also, get to windows with some moderately safe settings, then press the reset button on your PC...mine then doesnt
post and has to have the
PSU reset.
Normally, I would suspect the
PSU to be the cuplrit here, but I've just tried a Seasonic S12 and that is the same.
Ah well, onwards and upwards!
P.S. have you tried changing the
RAM to different slots? I found that the white ones gave prettier BSODs
