My mate recently ordered a new pc containing the following components:
Intel Q6600
Asus P5N-T Deluxe
Corsair 4GB DDR2 XMS2 PC2-6400C5 TwinX
BFG 8800GTX OC2
Seagate 500GB HD
Corsair 750W psu
Artic Freezer 7 Pro
Antec P182
We built it ourselves and it booted/posted fine and basically the problem started when we tried installing Vista. It kept crashing at different times in the installing process (this problem also happens when installing XP).
Things I have tried so far are:
- Installing using 1 stick of RAM and swapping them over when it crashed again.
- Installing on a different hard drive (Vista fully installed but now crashes at the welcome screen)
I'm running out of ideas on what to do next so does anyone have any pointers?
Thanks
Edit: Just done a search for this mobo on the net and apparantly theres major problems with it and yup the main problem being that it randomly crashes...so looks like its going to have to be swapped out.
