You installed 2 gigs of Corsair XMS. That's when it all fell apart.
You updated your BIOS. No effect or improvement.
This is how I interpret it. We're going in a circle here. Do you have the RAM that you used originally?
The AB9Pro is an advanced board, designed for users that are very aware that they will be changing settings and making adjustments nearly everyday. It's that way because it's that way. The safety features kick in any time the sytem senses an improper setting or dangerous situation. If a user starts rearranging these settings and they are (simply) dead wrong, the board throws up its fail safe.
Give us exact, specific system specs and start over from the beginning with precise details. We don't want to see anyone not able to be happy with their system.

I have already given the exact happenings in my first post, and with the RAM, it was in fact already installed. The memory timings were on 5-5-5-16, and I wanted to change it to 4-4-4-12, the verified low latency for the C4 Corsair RAM.

It is actually the normal AB9 board, not AB9 Pro. I chose Abit because I had used their boards before, and it was quite good. I had ASUS and Gigabyte boards fail on me before (default settings) and I did not like those two companies.

I am still awaiting a reply from Abit.
