Good place to start update everything. Dont overclock, do a backup in case. dl and run memtestx86 and run for several hours to verify your ram Ken J+ |

Yep fails like taht are ofter either a video driver, a raid problem, or HD. Try This see if you can boot into safe mode (F8) if it works then I suspect video driver. Let us know Ken J+ |

| | I has a similar problem, it was caused by the BIOS. With 2gm it loaded fine, with 4gb it wouldn't load. I changed the BIOS and the 4gb loaded without problems. I have an INTEL board and INTEL BIOS. |
