Hey all,
I just thought i'd get a second oppinion on this.
I think my IP35-Pro may be dead. I was installing windows on a WD Raptor HD and during a windows update, crucial windows processes started failing and the system ultimately rebooted.
After the reboot, i was able to POST and make it as far as booting up windows before i was met with a BSOD: INVALID_PROCESS_DETACH_ATTEMPT. When i rebooted, i was met with a "BIOS ROM checksum error" message. I tried switching sockets for the RAM (2x1 Gb blocks) which worked, and when i tried reinstalling windows i was met with yet another BSOD. All subsequent reboots have resulted in "BIOS ROM checksum error". I've tried disconnecting all "irrelevant" hardware to no avail.
Some background:
The system (in my sig) is not OC'ed. It's running at stock speeds. I was experiencing some instability in the beginning so i flashed the bios with v.14, but there hasn't been any problems at all.
Does anyone have similar experiences. How could the BIOS get screwed up during basic windows operation?
Thanks in advance.
