I have an ASRock Z77 Extreme 4 LGA 1155 with an i5-3570k cpu and Kingston KHX1600C9D3K2/8GX Ram. Only cooling is the cpu fan, haven't gotten around to buying a box fan.
Since the build a few days ago it kept crashing and I had to wait a while before I could start it up again. Yesterday the cpu fan ran very loud but I managed to boot up whereas I couldn't before. I installed a HDD with WIN 7 OS from a previous machine. I could not boot up until I changed BIOS setting for that HDD to IDE. Once I was in I slowly installed drivers but later realized that I can't use any USB devices even though I added all drivers including fastusb. So I decide to boot up to safe mode (maybe it was unnecessary) in order to uninstall and reinstall drivers. But my system crashed getting into safe mode. I was able to recover and get back to win 7. So it seems I have a problem getting into safe mode. There I was getting STOP: 0x0000007E and EUBKMON.SYS. But that aside earlier this morning the fan ran a little slower than yesterday and in one of the reboots the fan stopped spinning altogether. I was also getting a "machine_check_exception" errors during some of these reboots.
Currently it's working but I can't get the USBs to work. It seems windows keeps installing old drivers instead of the one I want. TIA.
