Strange problem. Before I begin I'm leaning toward a bad CPU.
Board worked with an i5-750. Picked up an i3-750, biostars website says its compatible. I have the latest bios version installed.
Biostar tp55
Dynex 700w power supply
Evga gts450
Kingston hyperx blu 8gb
2 seagate 1.5TB
1 seagate 1TB
1 OCZ Onyx 32GB SSD
The computer locks up randomly with a blue screen, with no recognizable details. When in bios setup, can't switch hard drive type to AHCI because the computer freezes when trying. Other settings in bios also freeze the machine. I've tried other video cards, other memory, one stick at a time, all with the same results. The only thing I haven't done is put the i5 back in it and see what happens.
Anyone seen anything like this before? The damn thing won't even boot at all anymore. I'm getting a little aggravated.
