computer not booting :(

I had my i5 working and stable at 4.2, I tried 4.4/6/8 with no luck at all. Put it back down to 4.2 and it doesnt boot. Returned to stock, still no luck, it just always resets after the bios logo

I can get into the bios, just not past it. Reset cmos as well

Load default settings, then set the AHCI, save and exit.

Done that, also had to make the M4 drive boot drive. Just resets and resets.

FFS I thought the i5 was easy to just whack up to say 4.4/6/8 but I can even load stock lol

Voltage is, tried ram sticks too mate

Nothing has changed, all I did was after running 4.2 for a while. Reset the pc, put it up to x44 and tried. Kinda confused....I dont wanna reinstall windows a 3rd time. Im sure its not an OS issue

lee20010 · 2 Oct 2011 at 01:37

What would moving the cpu do. Took me ages to set the H100 up...dont really want to move the cpu

lee20010 · 2 Oct 2011 at 09:48

Well I've tried resetting the CPU, Ive taken the cmos battery out, Ive re wired the whole thing. No damn luck

I uploaded the video of what keeps happening

Ignore the noise from the fans, its not as loud then it is in the video.

Odd... I thought I'd put the clock to 4.4ghz and reinstall windows and its working now. Good job I didnt lose much data. It would seem my mate who was here thought I didnt have a key, so he used a 'loader' which then had to reset the computer, after that it wouldnt work at all. But I've now activated my windows with a legit key, running well. Although my ram is at 1333mhz instead of 1600mhz, but I'm scared to change it

lee20010 · 2 Oct 2011 at 13:41

Would a bad loader really ruin the whole install? He has used it before with no issues

running 4.4 @ 1.31

lee20010 · 2 Oct 2011 at 13:50

Haha, well least I can actually use the pc. Sorted out the H100 fans too. I think I'll leave it at 4.4ghz though.

Another thing, Its still doing the same thing with the graphics driver, after reset the driver goes away and the screen is back to its awful state

lee20010 · 2 Oct 2011 at 13:55

Ill take one of how it looks now, and after reset. Gimme a few mins, just sorting something quick
