First time builder, long time computer user.
Specs:
AMD FX-6300 3.5GHz 6-Core Processor
Cooler Master Hyper 212 EVO 82.9 CFM Sleeve Bearing CPU Cooler
Asus M5A97 R2.0 ATX AM3+ Motherboard
G.Skill Ripjaws X Series 8GB (2 x 4GB) DDR3-2133 Memory
Asus Radeon HD 7770 2GB Video Card
Thermaltake Commander MS/I Snow Edition (White/Black) ATX Mid Tower Case
Corsair Builder 430W 80+ Bronze Certified ATX Power Supply
I've been reading thru other posts here and on various webpages of people who have been having this same issue.
Made sure everything is plugged in and secure. Updated BIOS tweaked it a bit for the CD drive to use IDE instead of AHCI.
I've also read that this mobo is picky when using RAM as it wants specific models and that it can BSOD when installing Windows 7 with SP1. Could my RAM not be compatible? Is it true that Windows 7 SP1 cause BSOD for this mobo?
Any help would be appreciated.
