I was processing some video last and all of a sudden I got a BSOD in Win 10. It went to reboot and it froze on the detecting hardware part.
Yikes!
After trying several times to get it to boot I was forced to disassemble.
I broke out my trusty backup board (GA-78LMT-USB3) and reassembled the system. I hit the power button and nothing.
Upon closer examination I discovered that both the old board and the cpu were shot. It seems a cpu pin melted into the motherboard.
I am running my backup athlon II x3 455 with the 4th core enabled to replace my now dead Phenom II x4 965.
hopefully everything works better now.
