I installed a new GA-EG45M-DS2H motherboard with an Intel Q9550 processor. The system booted up the first time and ran for a couple of hours and went through the automatic install of drivers and the associated reboots fine. At one point it froze (while transferring a large file to a network drive), I did a manual power down and back on, at which point it stopped on the windows logo. I have since installed both 32 and 64 bit versions of the OS multiple times with now luck, except that it will usually make it to safe mode fine but not normal startup.
This says to me that it is a driver issue, since that is the main difference between safe-mode and normal startup. I have tried doing a "Selective startup" set up through safe mode, basically trial and error on the drivers and services in msconfig, with no luck so far.
System:
Mobo: GA-EG45M-DS2H
CPU: Intel Q9550 core 2 quad
Memory: Corsair ddr2 800 2x2gb
For the moment using onboard video
I am out of ideas, if anyone can suggest something else to try, I would appreciate it.
Thanks
