Hello,
Got some major problems here.
Recently bought these components to upgrade my exsisting computer:
Pentium D 820
MSI 975X Platinum PE
1Gb OCZ PC2-6400
3DFuzion 7600GT
Seasonic 430W PSU
Everything else thats standard is already there HDD, CD etc
Upon creating this beast, i discover that upon powering the system, all the fans whirr into life and after about 5 seconds, the system shuts down and restarts. Nothing appears on the screen, and the only indication to the failure i get is an LED on the back that states the systems loses power as the chipset is initialised. Me and my mate have had a good look and i believe that (after a lengthy process of elimination) that it could be a fault with the RAM.
I have already sent a motherboard back, but the new one (exact replacement, same model) suffers from the same downfall.
Can anyone suggest a reason as to why this is happening? Please dont leave out seemingly obvious things that we may have overlooked
Many thanks.
John
