I just put together a SLI system. Everything was fine at first. Last night I was playing WOW and the screen/computer froze.
I waited approximately 15 seconds and nothing happened so I did a ctr-alt-del and the screen went black for about 15-20 seconds. I figured the system rebooted but then up came the same freeze/screenshot that I had before.
I think at that time I waited then powered of. When I booted it back up the bios hung forever then told me a windows 32.system file was missing and I needed to put in my disk and enter repair mode.
Did a ctr-alt-del with windows xp disk in drive.
Black screen.
No Bios
No feed to monitor.
No HDD light.
Cd-rom flickers and stops.
All power is working, case fans are going, MB light is green as usaual.
Unplug unit many times for 5 minutes still nothing. In desperation I took out battery and reset the jumpers for my CMOS.
Still no response.
I have no internal speaker from my case to my MB (No I am not happy about that ) so I can not get a BIOS audio error if there is one.
Specs:
Window XP Pro 64 bit OS
Asus A8N-SLI Deluxe nForce 4 SLI
AMD Athlon 64 X2 4400+ Processor Socket 939
Corsair TWINX1024-3200C2 2GB DDR400 XMS3200 Dual-Channel
Dual SLI BFG GeForce 7800 GTX COD2 PCI Express 256MB DDR3 Video Card
Enermax EG701AX-VE-SFMA Noisetaker 600W Power
LG GSA-4167BB 16X Dual Layer DVD±RW Drive
Maxtor 250 GB serial ATA drive
Would greatly appreciate any advice, I have a feeling its the MB but not sure...
