I haven't contacted corsair yet, but just another thing;
It seems that some BIOS options are actually not matching the defaults, but I can't reset them because the system just loses power before the restart... Would clearing the CMOS be worth it to reset default values?
CMOS reset may help. You may want to double check all the power connections to verify they are all tight and fully seated in their sockets and connectors as well.
It is sounding more like some PSU issue though.
The CMOS reset actually seems to have fixed the issue entirely, no restarts have occured for about a week now I think. Do you reckon it is still worth contacting corasir about the PSU?
It won't hurt/cost anything to ask Corsair. This may be a good time, two other members returned theirs and Corsair sent them a better PSU. No guarantee they will for you, but what the heck? :)
Haha, fair enough. Thank you all very much for your help :)
I appear to have spoken too soon, as I am now getting "An attempt was made to write to read only memory" and "paged file in non paged area" bsods..
I assume you have tried resetting CMOS again. I know we have been through this before, but the message sound like memory to me. You may also try the scannow SFC /SCANNOW : Run in Command Prompt at Boot
Those can be cause by a memory issue, try this:
RAM (memory):Test
This will require memtest on a bootable CD or USB stick.
RAM - Test with Memtest86+
Yeah, i'll run memtest again tonight. Would it be helpful if I post another folder from that sevenforums diagnostic tool?
