hiya guys :)

well i have just put myself together my what was meant to be "new replacement build" or that was the plan....

it consists of

Brand new i5 2500k (just broke the seal an hour ago)
brand new 4 gig of pny optima ddr3 1333mhz i think (single stick)
my old 9600gt for the time being to get me going
my other old corsair tx650 psu
megahalem by prolimatech
hard drives - main 80 gig (os/boot drive) seagate baracuda, secondary 250gig maxtor

"supposed" brand new asrock p67 pro (not pro3 just pro)

the reason i say supposed is because i bought it off ebay as new sealed however it looks though it has dust on it(rear side) and it had a 2.4ghz bluetooth:confused: mini adapter plugged into one of the rear usbs which i thought did not come with it...

anyway my main problem is that my rig just instant BSOD the second the windows 7 (64bit) logo comes in, you know how its like four wee balls makes a flag thingy :laugh:? well i dont get that far lol only way i can explain it

i have reset the cmos and also tried the bios settings to default which btw were set at 4ghz turbo hmmm? changing my ram to different slots, moving my sata cables into the 6gbps slots, removing everything minus the keyboard and mouse (wireless on usb adapter)

if someone could inform me how to get the computer on this board to not restart after a bsod would be good to get the bsod code and narrow it down, also i have not clean installed as there is a couple of things on my c drive i would like to retrieve

i also study hnd tech support at college so have built a fair few 775 systems the past three years so have a good idea of what im doing but never a sandy which im thinking of flogging n sticking to good old 775 if i cant figure it out :cry:

so yeah please guys any help:confused::respect: im due to bang my head and the pc off the wall :banghead:


thanks

white

What hard drives? Existing installation? Double check to see if you have AHCI set in bios , if yes try setting to IDE.

yeah sorry forgot the hdds

seagate baracuda 80 gig (boot and os drive)
maxtor 250 gig (secondary)

as i said i would preferably like to retrieve some stuff from the main os drive before a clean install and yeah i have tried both ide mode and ahci mode been googling a fair bit even tried auto and manual for various things and spread spectrum off, changing the load line calibration e.t.c

Yup, that's all it is. You need a clean install. Could probably do a live distro of linux and use an external drive to save your files(if applicable). I am going to be doing the same thing soon, but in a different manner I have to kill my raid array with migrating to an Intel build.
