Hey all,
I recently bought a S-Series GA-MA78GM-S2H motherboard to replace a biostar motherboard. I had a dual boot Ubuntu/XP home build, which worked fine (once I installed the drivers in Windows).
The system was working fine for about 2 days until I tried to use DVD shrink, which caused a major Windows error, which I had to fix with Win Repair. I figured my Windows needed a fresh start so I tried to re-install it. At first it looked like Windows was going to start, but it would do a hard restart. After a few attempts I finally got windows to install, but during the process it shut of power completely killing my power supply (a 650w I just bought). I assumed it must have been a faulty power supply so I borrowed my neighbor's spare, which crashed during a different part of the install, also killing this power supply.
Does anyone have any suggestions on what might be going on?
