[/quote][*]are you overclocking?
No sir .. I am not overclocking :) im running a new i5 processor at 3.1ghz as per factory instrucions
[*]is your memory a purchased set or is it mixed (you bought different modules at different times)?
Its a purchaed set of crosshair vengangace 2 x 4meg ... I removed the mixed and i am putting the vengance only ddr3 1 and 2 ( this is clearly marked on the motherboard, as per manual.
[*]what specific version of windows is this, and where did you get it?
Im using windows 7 home, i paid for it and have the disk.
[*]what size power supply do you have?
I have a crosshair 750volts
[*]is the 8 pin eps power connector connected to the mb?
Yes sir it is [*]lastly, have you checked to see that your cpu cooler is fully secured to the mb?
Im not sure what the cpu cooler looks like ? Im am assuming the i5 has its own fan. I can see the i5 fan going around with no clunking and it seems to be spinning clearly ...i only have |cpu fan and a case fan running and they seem to be running fine? I removed the radeon graphics card to use the onboard graphics
[/list]at any rate you really need to run memtest to determine where the memory is, after that...
I did run memtest ... It found no problems. How can i post you the results?
thanksand if you can't run memtest from the bios, you have a hardware problem, not a windows problem.
