Are you sure you didn't have the tube torqued too tight or anything like that...maybe shorting pins or something?(
I immediately thought that at first, remembering you had that problem. But tried it loose also.

dont know if this will help, but when i had my SS on a 920/ASUS p5wd2-e i couldnt boot with evap temps < -35C... lights/fans for a split sec then NOTHING. now if i booted while the evap was still > -35C it would boot fine and then i could go as low as i want once in windows (as low as my SS would go)
Thanks Joe.. That's exactly what happens.. The only thing is after I started up warm, the PSU shut down a second after I dumped the DI in.

On Yonah/Merom I start the container out empty, boot into Windows and then cool down.
Tried that but maybe I dumped too much DI in and need to sneak up on it. Besides that if it hangs, then I'm screwed waiting for it to warm. And when it warms, I notice frost builds up everywhere.

try warm booting then adding ice (or lifting the tube if you're ghetto like me)... that sucks proth
Thanks CD, Lifting the tube blows...that really made a mess, exposed the socket to air and afraid to fry something like that
I'm thinking about a way to have a way to "control" the temperature, maybe with something that gets uncovered at the bottom of the tube or something. Really need control rods like in a reactor...Or maybe have a better way to lower/raise the bottom of the core above the IHS.
Oh, Another thing.. WTF is up with the Ceramique, It turns to concrete, Isn't it supposed to remain a little pliable? raising the tube cold also breaks the TIM bond and it never reseals when the tube is re-lowered.
EDIT: @ others, thanks for the tips, remember everything works fine with the 631, It's definately 955 related
