The voltage on your CPU core.

I reckon it's the CD drive you added. A while ago I got a new SATA drive and used my old IDE 250GB for storage, since then half the time from a cold boot I either freeze at verifying pool data or get 'NTLDR is missing'. Both point to a dodgy HDD, however both HDD's work fine in other PCs.

And I've never heard of a Barton that wont hit 200FSB, my max is 192 so I'm guessing it's the motherboard/HDD causing problems/instability.

Does removing that CD drive make it work?

ill try that thats a very good pint on my ide i have win xp and when i have the sata hard drive coneted it totaly skips the boot screen (ok for me just speeds up boot ) but when i gat time to ill try with just my sata thx

i just tryed that i just get the blue screen of deth just before the boot screen

 

[matticus222]

ill try a fresh install of windows when i get my net hard drive could be some think like that but ill keep trying
(stable and runnign at 2.31ghz)

I'm doing a clean install of Windows soon, and switching back to an IDE drive. I think perhaps this motherboard just has awful SATA support, which is causing half of my problems. I can now only get into XP by pressing F11 at POST to choose the SATA HDD from a list, otherwise it just gives me the NTLDR message.

 

[matticus222]

that's wired
