Ok so i installed the mobo, cpu, psu, graphics card, and ram into my case. Tried to start everything up and got it to boot for about 15 seconds i would be able to get to the bios, after that it would crash. It would crash right after the lcd poster said "DET IDE".This happened repeatidly after clearing CMOS. With no luck in resolving the problem i went to sleep. (btw the cpu would get very hot quickly to the point where it would be too hot to touch after 10-15 seconds)
I figured it was probably the voltage of the ram so i went and picked 1gb of dd2 @ 667mhz today. After installing the new ram and clearing CMOS same symptom. Crashing after about 15 seconds.
Being very frustrated i pulled the mobo, cpu, ram and psu out of my case and set it on my desk. I then tried clearing cmos and booting, but no luck same response as before.
Any help in resolving my problem would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
