Old Problem Still Not Fixed
I am still having problems with my server. This is the only one out of six PCs I have built that is giving me some trouble.
Here is the problem, the BIOS recognizes all my drives, parts, etc, but it does not read the Windows XP disk. Also, when it gets to "Verifying DMI Pool Data," the system reboots itself. I suspected bad memory so I replaced it, but I still experience the same problems. Before I RMA the motherboard back to ZipZoomFly, does anyone have any further insight to this? Here are the exact parts: Dual AMD Opteron 265 Socket 940 Asus K8N-DL 2x1gb Kingston ECC Registered DDR400 (formerly Corsair memory) Liteon DVD-ROM Western Digital Raptor 74gb Antec NeoHE 500w Thanks everyone.

Unhook ALL drives except the hard drive and a rom drive..
Put the drive on a seperate port...If the Hard drive is a sata then put it on any port... If it's a IDE put it on IDE 1 as Master and the rom drive on IDE 2 as Master... clear the cmos and let it re-detect the drives...boot to the rom and see if you can load the CD in question...does that fix it..? If so it's either drives conflicting or a bios confliction....? clear the cmos for a couple hours.... head into the bios and load optimised defaults and reflash the bios to the latest version... thats a start...

Thanks Max, but unfortunately I have done that already. I have booted with no drives at all, and still have issues.

So, you've tried to boot it with only the core components and it's still rebooting?
Is that PSU a EPS server PSU? All power cords plugged in? 24 pin and the 8 pin? Are you running two Opterons? Are they a matched set? Cricket

Yes, EPS and 24 pin connected
I bought both Opterons retail at Newegg so I think so. I really think it is the motherboard. I will check the PSU voltages also. |
