    ASRock P67 Extreme6 - if it won't power up

    A few months ago, I had a problem where my new ASRock P67 Extreme6 rig would not power up. If you have this problem, and do not want to send the MB back, this approach works. I have a powerstrip with a switch. If I hit the switch and the power on button on my case at the same time, it...

    How to diagnose system not powering up?

    Ugh - I'd have to downgrade to my old MB again while waiting for a replacement, massive hassle. If the replacement is the same board model, it might be a compatibility issue. Maybe I'll just use sleep mode anymore :-) I've raised a ticket with ASRock, and I'll try unplugging everything but...

    RAM for P67 - Retailer sent 2/3rds of a 6 GB (3x2GB) kit ?!?

    Update: I raised a complaint and they now promise they will add the shipping to the refund. I mentioned it anyway in the note with the RMA'd RAM.

    How to diagnose system not powering up?

    There cannot be a problem with the PSU or the power button. It will boot if I clear the CMOS before I hit the power button. Otherwise no lights come on at all, but I can hear a pulsing through the speakers (thump thump thump, about 3/second). It is on the latest BIOS, but I will try...

    RAM for P67 - Retailer sent 2/3rds of a 6 GB (3x2GB) kit ?!?

    Update: Overclockers refunded me for the RAM, but they did not pay the cost of sending it back. Given that they said they didn't think they did anything wrong in sending me a different part number from what I ordered, I have no reason to think they would not do this to other customers in the...

    How to diagnose system not powering up?

    Hi, What should I check for a problem like this? Everything seems physically secure. I have a new ASRock P67 Extreme6 motherboard and a Corsair HX620 PSU. The PSU is not new and worked in my old rig. The load has not increased significantly since the upgrade, if at all. Most of the...

    P67 won't power up - clearing BIOS each time

    Hi, What should I check for a problem like this? Everything seems physically secure. I have a new ASRock P67 Extreme6 and Corsair HX620 PSU (not new and worked in my old rig). Most of the time, it will not power up cold. I can hear clicks through my speakers and a brief flicker on USB...

    RAM for P67 - Retailer sent 2/3rds of a 6 GB (3x2GB) kit ?!?

    Sent back - Overclockers.co.uk are treating it as an RMA. They better not try and apply restocking fees. Sent them the cost of returning the RAM. Bought some low-voltage RAM from a different retailer.

    P67 Extreme6 - can't POST RAM @ 1600MHz

    Is this normal?: 1600 + auto everything else did not work. Is it work trying a higher voltage?

    Hi. I have a new Asrock P67 Extreme6 and the following RAM: G.SKILL F3-12800CL7D-4GBECO 2x2GB DDR3-1600 CM7-8-7-24 1.35V The BIOS defaults to running this RAM at 1333 9-9-9-24 even though the specs above are what it is reading off of the SPD. Why does it do this? If I manually configure...

    P67 mobo - use Sata II or III with old SSD

    Results: 10 hours in, and my Asrock P67 Extreme 6 with a X25-M on the SATA3 port seems fine. I put my HDD on a SATA2 connector to be safe.

    P67 mobo - use Sata II or III with old SSD

    I asked because someone here said they sorted out their stability issues when they realised some drives are better on SATA II.
