Need desperate help MSi P67A-GD55 B3, Intel SATA Problem
Hi everyone, this is my first post and first thread in the forum. I hope y'all are doing fabulous.
I just bought an MSi P67A-GD55 B3 from someone yesterday. The board was brand new. It is a revision 3, which is supposed to fix Intel's SATA problems that used to be there before.
I just installed windows 7 Ultimate on it using a usb created by win 7 usb dvd tool, and installation and everything is good till it is at the part where it needs to reboot and then it either stays stuck at a black screen with the HDD light constantly on, or it will say "A disk read error occured Press ctrl+alt+del to restart"
I have literally tried EVERYTHING, from changing to AHCI mode, resetting the BIOS settings, and I have gone nowhere. Please help me on this. Also I tried a different HDD, it also did not work on this PC with the P67-GDD55 B3. I have used multiple hdds, tried the HDD on other PCs, and nothing helped. Also tried changing RAM. PLEASE Help me out, I would be ever greatful towards you.
Specs:
i5 2500
8GB DDr3(2GBX4)
500GB HDD
MSi P67a-GD55
HD6950 From HIS 2gb
I have no way to return on send it to MSi, since it would take me too much to ship it.
