Hi, I have been having a problem for the last two or three weeks where my PC will Bluescreen or just freeze up, and when I reboot I get one of a few issues:
1) Overclocking has Failed! Press F1 to enter setup blah blah..
When this occurs I just enter setup and leave it and my PC boots fine, unless it runs into issue #2.
2) Computer POSTs fine, when it get to the AHCI Drive Init. it detects my DVD Drive, but sits thinking trying to access the 2 HDDs there. Eventually it gives up and continues, displays it found my eSATA External HDD, and tries to boot from my DVD Rom...Please insert boot media and press any key or reboot.
When this happens I check everything, I tried to run an HDFT but it doesn't find the drives, if I rescan the bus it hangs trying to find the two drives and eventually just gives up.
Every once and a while it reboots and I can finally get into Windows. As is now. I don't know what to try.
Some information on my Rig:
Proc.: AMD Phenom II 1090T
Name AMD Phenom II X6 1090T
Codename Thuban
Specification AMD Phenom(tm) II X6 1090T Processor
Package Socket AM3 (938)
CPUID F.A.0
Extended CPUID 10.A
Core Stepping PH-E0
Technology 45 nm
TDP Limit 130 Watts
Core Speed 3724.4 MHz
Multiplier x FSB 16.0 x 232.8 MHz
HT Link speed 2095.0 MHz
Stock frequency 3200 MHz
(I just used ASUS's OC Utility, i'm not a big Overclocker so I just went with whatever it spit out and have been stable and cool)
RAM: 8GB DDR3 GSkill Ripjaws 1600

The HDDs are old, oldest thing in the rig next to the PSU and DVDRW.
