I recently somhow mangaed to kill my 8k3a+, so i thought it would be a nice upgrade to get an 8rda. Well i just got the board in yesterday, and put it to gether with out a problem. Started it and played with it a bit just to see how i could oc my 1700, i got it to 2500 mhz+ with out a problem.
Now i moved on to installing windows, so i reset everything back to stock, and installed windows. Went off with out a hitch. Now here is where my problems begin. I installed the nforce drivers and restarted, then i installed my gforce 3 drivers and restarted. But this time when it came back up, as soon as it got pas the xp boot screen, my mointor light turns orange.
So i restart and boot into safe mode, uninstall the video drivers and restart. Workes fine. So i download the newest drivers, and the same thing happens. So i download the newest nforce drivers and reformat and reinstall. Same thing happens.
What am i missing? I just download sp1 last night but i haven't got a chance to install it because i had to work today. Well this fix my problem? I don't think its my video card because the thing runs fine untill i install drivers for it. Any ideas?
