Specs: mobo= ASRock Z77 Extreme 4; CPU=Intel Core i5 3450 quad core; memory=Crucial 16GB (2 x 8GB) DDR3 1333; HD= WD Caviar Black 1TB OS =Win 7; CPU Cooler Cooler Master Gemini.
Case=China made no brand name.
This is my 2nd ASRock Mobo. 1st one was DOA. Mobo worked and did well for a while. My video card was DOA but that is another issue. I am using onboard graphics. I have a goal of a good gaming setup and a reliable full tower ATX desktop.
About one month ago, the computer began to act up and strangely started operating on its side but not standing up. After a lot of juggleing, I decided that something was loose. So after reseating everything, I got a DrDebug d6 and 5 beeps with my monitor reading no signal. So I took everything apart and reseated everything. Took out the CMOS battery and began to add components. I now have the ?CPU seated, thermal paste added and cooler seated, and memory sticks added. Now I get d7 no beeps and no signal to monitor.
Am I looking at another bad mob or what
