I have some issues with my new combo.
I moved from an a7n8x ans 3200 to the k8v and a a64 3400+.
My system is watercooled, everything was fine on the old system, everything oc'd just fine.
My ram is corsair xms 3500, and I had no issues on the old system.
On this one however, most of the time with the corsair, it won't even post. It takes a reseating of the stick to get video back, and then it freezes just into xp setup.
Switching to some cheap kingston ram fairs better, getting me past the raid driver disk screen, right to Setup is Starting Windows - then it hangs. Using a few various other cheap sticks gets results in between, with hangs at the CDROM boot screen, or just into setup.
I cannot locate any screen for usin the Promise controller, also. In the bios under 1001 which it shipped with, under avdanvedm onboard, it had enable promise and enable promise boot - that's it. I updated to 1003, and now there is only enable promise, that's it. Nothing about ide mode, and I have no where to get into fastrack.
help!
Do I need different ram? If so I purchase through www.mwave.com and www.newegg.com - and need 1GB total - which sticks are the most reliable for best performance with this board?
What's up with the Promise controller screens?
All bios settings are default/auto.
