I had this same error with my epox 4bda... try wiggling the memory around alot of different times... I finally got it to work after wiggling for half an hour and booting to see if it worked...

I had an almost identical machine I built a few months ago...and the same problem...I think I messed around with the video card and got it to work. If you have another video card to put in, try that...and load windows with it...

Well, one person says its RAM they found to solve it, other found the video card. I haven't used the board myself, but try re adjusting both, the video card and RAM and see if that solves it. I get the feeling it gives the error when a connection is loose.

Ixnay on my comment...I believe it is a ram error...the error I got was actually a 26 error...a little different...sorry.

zainali, check in the manual what each of those code errors (1 & 26) mean and see if they have any relation.
