videocard, pci soundcard, modem, something else plugged into the mobo?

trickson · Feb 26, 2010, 08:59 PM

Yes the G15 key board USB and the USB mouse . The video card is my GTX260 . Nothing els plugged in .

digibucc · Feb 26, 2010, 09:00 PM

for a problem to span across 2 -3 different boards generally means it's something else.
A BSOD crash at startup can mean a ton of things, but I have had it mean a hardware/driver failure, which would fit.

does it do the same thing trying safe mode?

No and no .

dark2099 · Feb 26, 2010, 09:02 PM

have you tried a different hard drive? spare PSU? and are you overclocking, because my SSD raid array hated when i would OC too much on it so might be getting some problem like that.

No safe mode at all . don't even get any thing in at all to take it to safe mode .

digibucc · Feb 26, 2010, 09:04 PM

hit f8 right before windows starts to load, that should let you try safe mode. if you can load safe mode that will tell us... something

dark2099 · Feb 26, 2010, 09:05 PM

if you can, find/borrow/buy a new copy of vista, maybe your install DVD has an error

No any thing can not get into safe mode at all . BSD when windows enters start up still .

dark2099 · Feb 26, 2010, 09:09 PM

have you tried googling the error, when i was helping a friend fix her laptop a couple weeks back, after trying a few things she remembered the error she got and after googling it found out that her HDD was dead?

i did. points to component errors or drivers, as i was thinking. PCI.sys is what leads me to believe it's his video card - though it could be an integrated PCI module, but 3 different boards makes that unlikely.

the fact that BSOD before you can load anything points to hardware level and not driver level problems... do you have another system you can test the video card in?

What does that mean? Higher chance of it being messed up by now, is what it means to me...

DonInKansas · Feb 26, 2010, 09:21 PM

I'd try a different hard drive.

No not at all . could it be some thing in the bios that I can turn off and get it to work . I do not have SP2 on my XP disk just SP1 . GOD this is so frustrating !

DirectorC · Feb 26, 2010, 09:25 PM

I was about to ask about SP2:

digibucc · Feb 26, 2010, 09:26 PM

well you can just reset bios to safe/defaults , if it doesn't work like that it likely has nothing to do with the bios.

clarify if this is the 3rd motherboard or the second please, i'm confused on that part.
if it is the 2nd (1st replacement) , then it could possibly still be the motherboard
if it is the 3rd (2nd replacement) , then the chances are very slim the motherboards have anything to do with it. it is most likely a PCI component issue, which the only one you seem to have is a video card. (no sound card, modem, etc) .... so sorry to say without having any way to test the video card can't go much further on that train of thought.

if it's not the video card, you can try reinstalling AGAIN... but it really points to that having gone crap.

wish it was SP2. that would be a great answer

Well that is what I am thinking I just do not know it does it every time now I am at a loss . Guess I can take the card in and have it tested .

GOD nothing is working ! why ? I have had problems in the past but nothing like this ever !!! Is it because the MB is windows 7 ready and if so should I just get it then ?

Sorry man I am just over my head here and really stressing out man I still can not get any were .

I am going to try and see if I can get a new version of vista I need maybe a retail version not this upgrade stuff . Thanks to M$ .

Oh one thing I can DO is load vista on no problem at all ! But since it is a upgrade disk ( Thanks to M$ for making soo many nice versions for us all ) .. I will be looking for a version of windows that is not and upgrade disk .

dr emulator (madmax) · Feb 26, 2010, 10:47 PM

my view possible psu problem ,have you got a multimeter to test it ?
also if you've got potential memory problems you could try memtest86+ it's quite simple to use ,all the instructions are on that site ,and if you need advice using it just ask someone here
