upgraded my cpu last week from pduo 805 to a e4300. I'm having problems with it booting though, when i turn the computer on everything starts up cept the gfx card (8800gts 320mb) the fan twitches like its going to start spinning then stops then about 5secs later starts spinning and the screen stays black with monitor on stand by, I push reset button and it boots and goes to splash screen and then says i had a failed boot enter bios to change settings, all i do is enter bios then exit without saving and it all works fine the gfx fan never stops spinning at all on reset
I've ran memtest and orthos for 4hr+ without errors and never had any crashes so far, and apart from the processor and the 120mm fan i bought i've used everything else for ages without this ever happening. This started while overclocking when i hit 1200rfsb it jus wouldn't boot at any numbers i tried at till 1364 but then it wouldn't boot at that so i upped it again to 1388 and worked again but still wont work from power button, also the only reason i went up with fsb and not down is cos i read about fsb holes or something like that from a e4300 overclocking thread on here.
my setup is
[email protected]/asus p5n-e sli/team xtreem 6400/bfg8800gts 320mb/tagan 480w/
I don't mind if this is way i have to start it up all time now just wanna know i am not harming pc really, and if anyone knows why starts fine from restarts but not cold boot
