Thanks skyline.. when I said I can see the speaker I meant I can see a small PC speaker thats plugged into the area where the reset/pwr/led etc go. Its hanging free but it is a cheapy piezo speaker. Ive already stripped the machine down to the components you mentioned to try and limit whats...

I originally thought it was a faulty PSU so I already got my friend to buy a replacement OCZ 850. So yes we have spare PSU, no it didnt change anything. Also I can see the PC speaker plugged into the mobo but it aint beeping or anything.

Thanks Chris, 24 pin only and no beep.

Tried clearing CMOS and as feared no change.. looks like I'm advising a new mobo.. Damn I was hoping for something easier. Thanks guys, your advice was much appreciated.

Already replaced PSU and problem persists.. Will check clearing CMOS tomorrow.

Yeah I made sure the 12v rail is in. Yes it was overclocked previously (but had since lost its settings and had been happily running standard settings) I havent as yet flashed the CMOS (im assured the rig hasnt suffered any knocks, no flashes or bangs.. one day it just wouldnt boot)

Obviously I havent done as much research as you have but I'm curious why your spending so little on memory and motherboard, especially compared to the budget of your gfx.

Ok I've got a problem and needing some help trying to diagnose so I hope you guys n gals can offer some advice. Heres the rigs specs; Mobo: ASUS M4A7B-E Chip: Not sure Memory: 16GB GSkill F2-6400CL4D (4GB x 4) GFX: ATI Radeon HD 48901 HDD: 2 x 500GB Hitachi Deskstar PSU: Toughpower...

default I think is administrator (maybe with capital A) or a blank entry. Someone please correct me if I'm wrong

whats so wrong with RAID? personally I dont agree

I went RAID0 and havent looked back, just make sure that you know which sata drive is in which port when you dust off cables. Get a cheap external for backups, you dont need that much speed on backups but the performance increase on RAID0 was nice. Sometimes can be a pain to setup.

you could try remouting the mobo with longer stantions, when was the last time it was cleaned out? I hate to use this but dust can be a real pain to the performance of a machine either grounding components or causing heat buildups

Last time I had this the mobo was grounding off the case :/

echo Devz, imo best mouse I've ever used. Check some of the previous posts on mouse recommendations, there are loads.

anything in the bios settings? maybe you can disable from there

try disabling the mem check on post and see if it makes a difference

If its never done it before and nothing has changed then memtest is a great place to start. However, quick question. How clean is your case? You'd be suprised how much a little dust buildup can affect performance and stability

not at my first build haha, that was just a mutant but I do get a little nostalgic for my old AMD dual core machine.. *sigh* best machine I ever built, solid as a rock, incredibly fast.. oh why did I give it to a friend and build a new one :/ Nothing will ever come close I think..
