My A64 box has been acting up like crazy lately. It started with hard locks at all times - under load playing a game, at the Windows desktop browsing the web, and while I was not at the computer at all. Then a few days later it started going from hard lockups to just flat turning off and not wanting to turn back on. The situations were the same as the locks, but it was as if someone just yanked the power out of the back of the box. The power button did nothing. If I did pull the plug from the wall and wait a few seconds before plugging it back in, it would come back on.
I've since clocked everything back to stock, taken inventory of my temps, and voltages. The only detail I found to be problematic was that MBM was reading my +12v rail as over 16v! BIOS has it (and all my other rails) pegged within a few hundreths. Before I call OCZ and get them to do an advance RMA, is there anything else this could be?
See the A64 rig in my sig for detailed specs.
