Hey guys -
I recently built a computer, and everything was going perfectly well for the first week or so. Yesterday I was playing Braid on Steam (not a demanding game, for those who are unfamilar), and the computer crashed. It rebooted itself and got me to the BIOS. I looked over everything, and it all looked good, so I proceeded to continue booting. But it didn't work. I have taken out one stick of RAM, I have taken out both sticks of RAM, I have taken out the GPU, I have reseated all of the components, including CPU and Heatsink. I have reset the BIOS (pulling the battery), too. Still no luck and I get to a POST code of "d0". On ONE boot attempt, the POST code changed to "60" but it has been "d0" every other time.
I have a Biostar TZ77XE4. Processor is i5-3570k, stock heatsink (I haven't done any overclocking yet). GPU is a Sapphire 6950, 8GB of Vengence RAM. Corsair TX650v2 PSU.
Am I really missing something here, or is this Motherboard somehow dead suddenly? Any other troubleshooting tips for a new builder? I feel that I've done nearly everything I've read and can think of.
If no one else has advice, looks like it's time to get in touch with Biostar for a replacement. Thanks, in advance, for the help.
