Hi guys!
I'm trying to get a new computer to work. It is stuck in an endless reboot. I was watching the numbers of the boot process in the diagnostic led on the board and it reboots at random spots.
I have managed to get it to boot into the BIOS long enough to turn on XMP Profile 1, but I can't seem to get anywhere beyond that.
I have tried using 2 different (new) motherboards and have the same results.
I have also tried stripping it to motherboard, cpu, memory, and keyboard, and it still continued.
The BIOS is using the newest revision (F10).
I have also tried to get it to boot with 1 stick at a time and I have tried each stick in each slot individually.
I figure that the likelihood of me having 2 defective boards with the same defect is pretty small, and I would suspect that having 4 bad sticks of memory from the same kit is not very likely.
I am suspecting that either this is a settings issue, or the cpu is defective. Any thoughts?
Thanks!
