MoBo: EVGA 790i SLI FTW
CPU: Intel Core 2 Duo 3GHz
RAM: Crucial DDR3 1066 (2x2GB)
GPU: EVGA GTX 260
BIOS: Phoenix AwardBIOS v6.00
OS: Vista x64
So, I was doing some old school gaming (Riven [Myst sequel]), suffering the occasional crash. The last time it crashed, my MoBo seems to have gone with it. After POSTing, the BIOS sometimes hangs on the Memory Testing, sometimes it hangs on Detecting IDE Drives (I have no IDE drives btw). Either way, it always hangs.
BIOS is totally unresponsive. I hit the delete key like a madman with no luck. The MoBo has a nice reset CMOS button, but it's not working. I pulled the CMOS battery and 30min later installed a fresh one, no luck. Tried booting without the battery, no luck. I reseated EVERYTHING with no luck. No matter what I do, I can't access BIOS settings.
Has anyone seen this before? What's your take? Thanks!
