Boot issues/motherboard?

661 Views 5 Replies 2 Participants Last post by  Doby
I just installed a new E2200 Dual core 2.2ghz onto my board and installed windows, windows works fine and all its just turning on the computer the screen comes on black and I constantly have to push the reset button. After about 3-5 pushes it boots fine.

I'm running;

Intel Dual Core E2200 2.2GHz
4GB DDR2 667
ASRock 4CoreDual-SATA2 R2.0 Motherboard
250GB SATA HDD
Antec 650 Watt PSU
EVGA GeForce 9800 GT 512MB Superclocked
2 22x DVDRW (One is SATA connection)
D-Link Gigabit Ethernet PCI card
Creative Sound Blaster SE
AND 3 Case fans/1 PCI slot fan

Any thoughts?

Did this setup run before the cpu upgrade?
Did you upgrade anything else, ram for example?
the setup was the same as before
Thats strange according to your motherboard specs it only supports 2 gig of ram and you have 4 installed

Can you try running it with just 2 gig installed
I should have mentiond this before but it would be a good ide to clear the cmos then enter bios and load the optimized defaults and redo any other setting you need
