i'm having the same problem with a gigabyte 8s648fx-rz-c m/b. i'm going
to flash the bios and see what happens. how did you fix this problem?
did you have to replace the m/b?

thanks,

bill

thanks for the reply. i flashed the bios to f7 ( the latest) and now the

did the trick (i have a celeron D 2.66GHZ ) processor installed.
