Doesn't like me for some reason.
Stats
6600 c2d.
xbx975 board says 305 on a sticker on it.
enermax 620 (supports cross fire and SLI)
corsair DDR2 6400 two one gig sticks (two gigs located in the blue slots)
one 74 gig raptor SATA
pioneer dvd rewriteable drive
Mitsumi floppy drive
1900xtx.
I have tried booting with the hard drive in the blue sata's and in the black sata's neither work. Tried booting without the HD installed didn't matter either.
I tried without the dvd drive, with the dvd drive makes no difference.
I tried booting with the floppy drive and without the floppy drive made no difference.
I cant even get in to the bios... I tried moving the cmos switch removing the battery. Nearly everything I can think of.
I am kind of at the end of the rope I cant think of anything else to try. Any ideas from anyone else. The only thing i can think of is maybe the board isn't compatable with the conroe chips but I dont know how to test this. I could pick up a cheap 775 chip but why go through that if that isn't the case.
All items purchased from online retailers (newegg, mwave) so taking it back in to the store is kind of hard to do. I could call them and see if they have returns or exchanges.
This is the screen i usually get frozen at. the code at the bottom is EB another code is A5. the other screen is a raid screen asking to press f4 or ctrl-S but keyboard isn't responding tried usb and conventional PS2.
