i guess you didn't read he said 15:00 board is dead! i doubt you can push it much more!
so did everything else survive or is it too early to know?

That happens to me when I have a 'failed overclock' Sometimes it will say 'DET DRAM' and others it says 'CPU INIT' randomly. To get round it I boot with a stick of low rated memory and then go to bios press F10 to save, then power off and put my 'proper memory' back in and I'm away again. It doesn't happen so often with my HZ D9GMH, but happens frequently with my Cellshock D9GKX.

I think what happens is the board tries to boot at default settings after a bad overclock and the default VDIMM just isnt enough for my GKX (1.83v).

interesting you did mention at i4memory.com that you had all sorts of trouble with those cellshocks and this mobo so that's it is it

Dinos
he is a monster and with two San Aces it will beat any air cooler... i think

[HermS]

Yup I've seen a few folks on different forums with the same problem, not just with Cellshocks. It really takes the fun out of it for me

thanks Herms

[HermS]

it was worth a shot, sorry for your bad luck mate.

its ok

[dogsx2]

RIP Sorry to hear this my friend.

No problem, try an Abit Quad now.

[DeDaL]

PcCI2iminal try to unplug power from MoBo, a few minutes after try to boot.
Before do this clear CMOS.
Its works for me sometimes

Nope, I did notice it, and I would guess that's why this thread was titled "short story" coz the board died a "short while" after. I was referring to CPU, since most Kents have FSB wall way way below 400FSB, even with some i965-based boards and specially on air!

PcCI2iminal, did you do the GTL mod on that board?

[da_h00k]

Finally a nice quad-core fsb clocker - and one that clocks every core :-)

Just too bad it's dead...

[Zeus]

Dumb question maybe but are you sure nothing is shorting that makes the PSU shut down?

I thought commando's were trained to kill, not to be killed?

[Z3R0-CooL]

try removing power plugs, take battery off and CMOS clear for few hours..... might work....


same thing happened to my P5B-DLX, and i RMAed it....

[idiotekniQues]

is it it me or are those super.pi scores terrible? or because he is running 4 at a time it is great.

i guess that has to be it.
