I have a striker extreme motherboard, intel quad core 6600 and 2 sticks of one gig ram. Ram is on the recommended for mother board list from crucial.Graphic card is 9600 gt I believe. POwersupply is 600 wats and only one hard drive and cd rom.
Info I have found out about this board since I purchased it. Striker extremes seem to have a problem with initial booting out of bios. There is a read out at the back of the computer that tells one what the bios is checking. Many have reported of it not getting out of the first initial proccessor stage. Some like someone here on your forum get bios checksome error. There are some suggestions on asus forums basically stating reset the cmos take the battery out unplug the unit and wait . Change ram to one stick change it's position and then put it all back in restart hope you can get into bios to check the voltage on your ram see if it's correct and flash rom to newer version.
Done what I can but nothingseems to work in clearing cmos getting into bios area. My system actually initials proceesor tests the memory to be ok.lists teh main proc correctly then in brighter letters states sli-ready memory detected a dash then a few asccii char of jibberish. I think this is where it hangs. Now is it trying to read graphic card memory and hanging?Or is it as I suspect something in bios not set correctly.SO far I am o for 5 trys getting into bios.
any help would be appriciated
