I just got a ga-7vax refurb from Newegg, and I want to make sure that it's absolutely dead before I RMA it. From the get-go, it booted into XP fine, but every now and then, it would reboot itself with no warning. I chalked it up to xp not being installed on this mobo, and planned to reformat. Once, however, it didn't POST after the reboot. I unplugged it and left it by itself for a while, and later it worked again. Well, this happened again, only this time, it won't come back. Anybody else have POST problems? or any general advice? replies/bumps appreciated!
