Oops! Sorry for double posting!
Hello,
So yesterday, while I was at work, my dad was on my computer and MBAM or something said that there was a virus and it needed to restart. When it booted back up to the BIOS splash, however, it would just sit there and be stuck. I can't go into the BIOS, or do anything of that sort. It does end up going past that, but only after a LONG time.
I checked on the mobo for the Dr Debug code, since I have an AsRock 970 Extreme4: it was stuck on "64" which results in a CPU DXE initialization failure. The CPU at the time was an AMD FX 6300.
So, it's my CPU then, I thought, but I wanted to make sure. So I put in my Phenom II X6 (yes, it is supported by my AM3+ mobo), only to result in an automatic shutdown after a second of booting. The only thing with that CPU is it had one pin a little bent, but I fixed it with a tiny phillips head screwdriver (the flat one, I forget), but I could be wrong.
So is it my CPU, or my mobo? I can't decide which. Can any of you help me?
Thanks in advance!
