There was a guy in the eVGA forum who didn't take the plastic cover off the bottom of the CPU. How he got it in the socket is beyond me.

always put mine in the case. But I know guys that run them outside the case. I don't know if it has to be grounded to the PSU.

It has a built in speaker, so you must not be getting any beeps.

From the manuel...that looks like a really nice board.



Are you getting any beep codes?

ftp://download.intel.com/design/motherbd/bx2/D7364501US.pdf Page 70 of this, is interesting. usually you reset the CMOS, but this says to actually move the jumper over to 2-3 pins and power up. To get setup to run. That's new to me. Also read 81.... That legacy connector (4 pins) is for pci-e cards....

You'll get it...hang in there. What fun would it be if it was easy? Did you run through this list? http://www.intel.com/support/motherboards/desktop/sb/CS-010254.htm#processorissues Do you have both power connectors plugged in? there should be an 8 pin one, near the CPU. these dual cores need more j...

No fans come on nothing huh? But the led on the board lights up. In this case, I usually pull the CPU back out and inspect everything, then I reseat the memory. Drop down to just 1 stick. get on the net and make sure the ram you have is compatable with your motherboard. I've had really good ram...on...

What are the system specs? Type of ram & motherboard?

Welcome from another noob. I usually start by searching the forum for my problem, and/or googling it, before I start a thread for help. But I'm sure everyone here love a good problem to tackle, I know I do.

Whew....good. I should probably check things out anyway, one last time. before my 3 weeks off.

I just got a new Onkyo receiver, beacause I needed the HDMI inputs, and I have this: http://www.epinions.com/pr-JVC_RX-6030V ... o_Receiver
sitting in my garage collecting dust. You pay shipping, and you can have it. You will have to wait until I get back from Vacation though.

Great.....I guess I better go to the office today and check that DFI infinity 975 x/g + Q6600 system running Kubuntu. Otherwise it will be hung up for 3 weeks. Are your linnux systems all hanging?

Did you turn off windows firewall?

Sandra benchmark thing works pretty good, this computer is doing good. Only thing is it just told me my mother board was nearly 100*C. I touched the Mobo in several places and if anything its room temp, where is the sensor for mainboard temp located? even the northbridge (i think) with the heat sin...

Another good one is speedfan. it's a free d/l. Those were some pretty cool videos. I got a 6278. But I have a pretty nice system. Quad core QX6700 EVGA 680i SLI M/B GeForce 7600gt vid card 2 Gigs of Corsair ram. I wouldn't put too much bank in benchmarks. As long as it's fast in real life and your h...

Well why dont you tell me what everyone likes to use to benchmark their systems, that can give me memory voltages and timings, and little things like that, system temp, and overall benchmarks I really dont know what to use for these things. Also, Is it safe or even smart to use this program "A...
