- Pros: will not boot.....
- Cons: The same as the other guy... Everything istalled right but no beep and no boot... All the fans are running and it seems like everything is working... any help would be great...
BIOS + 9600 Black Edition
- Pros: UnKnown at this point.
- Cons: Question to Gigabyte:
This is a new build from scratch. All parts Ordered from NewEgg. After putting together this computer I get no post beeps.(Will Not Boot) CPU fan + Video fans run and CDR drive spins and light blinks.
My Question is this, Is the Motherboard bad or is the CPU Bad or will the board possibly post with the slower RAM.
Answer from Gigabyte : Is the 9600 the regular version or the Black Edition. If it's the black edition you will need to use an older processor to get it to post to update the bios first
- Other Thoughts: Be Carefull what you wish for.
I've allready RMA'd the board back to NewEgg because I didn't get a response from Gigabyte for 4 days.(Sorry) but should have been a warning label on the Specs Sheet or something. (Non Returnable Item) I guess I'll have to Beg Borrow or Buy another Processor to get this board to work.
Excellent board
- Pros: Too many features to list here. For the system I built, board layout is just perfect for access to disk drives (I often change drives, move things around, etc).
- Cons: None so far.
- Other Thoughts: Heat from CPU flows over the motherboard's chipset cooler fins. But it is aligned with direction of air flow, giving chipset optimal cooling. This is my first silent pipe mobo, and I love it - no more chipset fans to wake me up in the middle of the night! I have a 2.3GHz phenom processor on this mobo. To keep it company, i have two 1GB Mushkin DDR2 1066 memory sticks, and a Samsung 500GB SATA2 drive. During the initial setup, I had to install one memory stick and start the system in order to set correct memory voltage (otherwise system would not start). Other than that, everything is running fine without any problem. Among the many AMD and Intel systems I have built, this one is the best, most quiet, and least problematic system.
