Hey, im new here but lets see if you guys can help me.
A week ago i fried my 780i FTW mobo. And i needed a cheap replacement because i did not have a lot of cash. So i decided to get a GA-EP45-UD3R. After installing it, everything worked great i booted it up no problems and it was late so i turned it off went to bed.
next day i boot it up and it hangs and just freezes at a random place while booting up (post like it shows what looks like dos). Restart it manually and then it boots up normal. Windows boots up so i decide to watch a movie (yes all drivers are installed) 5 minutes into watching the movie my entire screen freezes and i can't move mouse nothing.. i wait about 5-7 seconds and it goes back to normal. near the end of the movie the exact same thing its like its on a clock when to freeze.
Everyday in the morning it hangs on the booting process but any time after i rebot it manually it works. And it always wants to freeze while using my computer or even not using it, it just randomly freezes. Now sometimes i can ever hear my motherboard "click" before it freezes if i really try hard to listen. i had a 680i in another computer, i swapped it and it all works. went back to this mobo and the stuff keeps happening.
I do not have any BIO's updates so i wonder if that is the problem. while writting this my screen froze... im starting to get mad.
Im running a Q9550, 8 Gigs of OCZ 1066 Reaper ram, 280 GTX SC EVGA, all stock. even if i TRY to oc by 1 mhz my system crashes and goes into safe. Does anyone have an explination on why this is happning. even when doing nothing my screen freezes. Thanks for anyone who can help.
Any Ideas? (note currently my system BIO's is all stock other than enabiling USB keyboard, and RAID 0 with two HDD, the freezing still happens out side of RAID too).
