Hi Forum,
My question isnt too complicated depending on how you look at it...
I built a new computer and have had it up for about a month now. Specs:
i7 4770k @ 4.2ghz and tested to be stable with intelburntest/intel extreme tuning
gigabyte g1 sniper m5
16gb corsair dom plat 2133 set at XMP and memtested to be stable
sandisk extreme ii ssd
780 Ti evga SC
Alright, the problem im having is on boot up. When i hit the power button on my 350D the computer boots up like normal screen stays black, mouse lights up, but before it hits windows (8.1 btw) boot up the computer just shuts off. No reboot/power cycling, just shuts right off. Ok, weird right? On 2nd hit of the power button, it boots perfectly fine into windows, this happen quite often and for the past few days is consistent. So basically i have to do two boot ups to hit windows. Im sure its a BIOS issue from what i have googled, but unlike the cases that i google, im not having cycling issues just a boot fail, and then 2nd boot completes. I am on the latest F7 BIOS for the board because although i didnt "have to" i updated from i think F3 to the newest and as far as i know everything was successful.
Ive been playing AC4 and some BF4 with no windows instability, game crashes, or BSOD's (except for initial tweaking of OC settings but its been pretty stable thus far) So the first thing i thought of would be to reflash to an older BIOS or possibly use the backup BIOS to see if anything changes. I have cleared the CMOS mulitple times and that has not fixed the problem. Looking for suggestions if anyone has some input, thank you. This is not a super urgent problem as i can still use my computer but a mild annoyance
