i had to rma my mobo for another one since my first one stopped posting or doing much of anything other then powering up so i received the replacement just last night and rebuilt my pc, but unfortunatly im having MAJOR stability issues. Ive tried numerous times to get windows installed but i keep getting BSOD's and the once or twice i actually managed to get it to install it screwed up royally.
I was in the middle of installing sp2 last night when i got a blue screen and it REALLY messed up the install...i couldnt even uninstall sp2 to start over. then the second time i got windows going it was going well, i was avoiding sp2 right off the bat and getting other drivers and such installed when BLAM bsod and another screwed up copy of windows GRRR!!
Here's my specs:
AMD Athlon 64 3000+ Venice
EVGA NF4 SLI Motherboard
EVGA Nvidia 7800gt Videocard
2x512(1gb total) OCZ Platinum Ram 3200(400)
80+120 GB WD Hard Drives
Audigy 2 ZS Gamers Edition Soundcard
Fortron 450w psu w/dual 12v rails
Bios changes I can remember making:
-Disabled a floppy drive since i dont have one
-disabled onboard sound
-not a changed, but noticed my ram is running 2T settings instead of 1T like it did in my previous build(before my new upgrade)
Should i just trying reseting to standard settings with no changes?
Im getting to my wits end with at least 10 installs of windows last night failing. Any help would make you a god in my book!
