hi all
i have a bad feeling that i have somehow killed my good old Gigabyte P35DS3 Motherboard. Suddenly my attempts to start windows 7 end with a bsod, and the same happens when i attempt to start up winxp, which is in fact located on a second hdd. I have also tried to start the mini xp version from hirens boot cd, but it ended with bsod as well... I guess this rules out hard drive corruption, what i have first suspected. worst of all, i am not getting any display output at all!
Here is what i did before the complete failure occured: i have fired up "mini linux" from hirens boot cd in order to partition my old 250 GB IDE harddrive which is residing in a coolermaster x-craft enclosure. I have created the partitions on the external hdd and started to backup stuff on it from my two sata hdds (which are in my pc case) - still from mini linux. the process took like two hours. Then i have connected two usb flashdrives to the x-craft enclosre, as i wanted to move data from one to another. Afterwards i have restarted the pc and wanted to go back to win7.
The first problem came when i was still at the boot screen: the post memcheck appaerently failed and the computer restared itself. Then another restart occured when trying to boot windows. I have realised that the hdd enclosure (with the two attached usb pendrives) was still connected, so quickly plugged out the cable from the usb port.
Windows repair mode was also a no-go, as it either hanged or gave me an I/O error telling something about an improperly disconnected external drive (which is actually close to the truth).
So i figured that the problem will be probably mobo related, so i have tried to restore default settings in bios (i was running a slight OC for like more than 3 years). And this is where the real misery occured: no display output on the monitor!! In fact i had probs like this in the fact (display taking ages to turn on or wake up), but i always thought it was a problem of my hp lp2275s monitor and its displayport connection. Now i have connected my old phillips lcd through dvi, but i am not getting any signal either....
Does any of you have an idea what could be wrong???
I will try to get an old pci graphics card later this week, so i can get a display output and run some diagnostics from rescue cds, but any help would be appreciated.
I am afraid, that the usb enclosure somehow fried some crucial interface on my mobo...
