Hi,

After making changes in the bios, then f10 to save and exit it appears to resart but the screen just stays blank.

Im not doing a massive increase or anything for it to fail.

It just doesnt like doing a warm reboot it seems after being in the bios.

After it hangs I just switch it completely off for a minute or so then power on.
:confused:

Im using:

P5N32-E Sli
E6600 cpu
Corsair 2GB DDR2 XMS2-5400C4 TwinX (2x1GB)

ZM600-HP Heatpipe Cooled 600W Modular PSU
Zalman CNPS9700-LED Aero Flower CPU Cooler
2x Raptor Drives

Thanks

If you've not already done so, turn off the JMicron eSATA controller in the BIOS and/or upgrade to BIOS 0401. That usually sorts it.

I only came across your issues when useing the 0602 BIOS. My system had difficulty bringing up the POST. This seemed to be fixed when I moved onto the 0702 BIOS (now useing 0902 without any issues whatsoever). I'd make sure your chipset voltages are manually set, as that also helped with my issues.
