Does it post, do you hear a beep?

WHat version is your Bios, are you overclocking it? What is your ram and your settings, what is your HTT at and multiplier, what is the blue screen of death error number? I had this before and it was the IDE cable that came with MSI, i put my old one back on and volia it worked. With the...

Whats you HTT at?? if its at 5 set it to 4, if its at 5 that will amke it very instable.

yah you got alot of power sucking there. UNplug your optical drives, un plug your 120 mm fans, unplug your 250 unless its the booting drive.. down the power as much as possible and try again.

What do u have in your rig, hardrives cd roms leds, cathorays? You might be unstable with power to over clock. i sugesst trying to unplugg the cd-roms leds extra fans and then see ifyou can boot up. Also it could be the antec. Look at this link...

whats your power supply. I have tested this issue with a 350. If i overclock to much with my 350 i ahve stabalilty issues. WHen i put the antec 550 in i can push t harder and faster and its stable. Does yours not boot or does it just crash randomly??

whats your FSB and HTT(LDT) set at and vcore of your cpu? and what ram and what timmmings??

With the new 90nm cores the stock coolign keeps them really cool. I do suggest if you dont have an intake or exhausst fans, to get one of each for optimal circulation in the case. RIght now i ahve mine up to 2.2 on stock and it runs low 40s easily, I will eb gettign it up to 2.5 and will fin...

i agree with ts3433, it sounds liek daveshel is having a HTT or LDT issue where the memory is not runing an its most efficancy step. The HTT probalby is at 5 right now, maybe lower but set it to 4 and your comptuer shoudl bootup. Keep our multiplier at 9, up yoru fsb to 220 then put your HTT...

I do belive so, i have the 3000+ (1.8) winchester and i knwo ti can oc easier then the 3500 and you can get the 3000 up to the 3500 and higher perfectly stable. Anyone think other wise?

hmm so are you going to buy a new one then? Hopefully its not yoru cpu as well. Just a warning about your Antec true power supply, there are soem issues with abit, asus, and msi with antec trueseries with thier older models. Go here and you will understand more...

Yah fans are about 3-5 watts and the cathode more, so turn off as much as possible. Is it possible that you added the cathode later and then the problem started to happen? Or did you always have the cathode, or maybe you added a fan. One of those things will put you over the limit if you are...

Yah my rig 2 has a sparkle 350, but i never use that machien, my friends do who come over so i was never wooried about power on it as I dont use it. I use my number 1 rig with the antec 550. I see your issue with money, everyone gets those issues and its not fun. The only reason why i got a...

no prob man, if you have the kowledge you shoudl share it. SO thats what i am trying to do.
