    Windows 7 - Hangs on Cold Boot (new build)

    Update - from what I've noticed, and makes no sense to me at least If i leave it at 133mhz bus spd on the gtx 460, it won't boot in, hangs on windows flag if i set it to 160mhz bus spd, it ALWAYS boots in. 133mhz on an 8800GTS, boots in fine. only concern is, at 160mhz bus spd, the...

    Windows 7 - Hangs on Cold Boot (new build)

    no no, all in the BIOS if i leave the i5 760 proc at the default BUS speed of 133mhz, then the ram clocks at that too and i notice that intel's turbo boost works too but if i set the bus speed to 160mhz so it matches the ram, then turbo boost doesn't work (might be normal, no idea)

    it's happened 2 or 3 times when hanging on the boot otherwise it's perfect (the monitor) another mobo is tricky, cause i dont have another with that slot unless i RMA other thing i can try is a PSU

    BSOD when watching Blu-Rays on a GTX 460

    yup, i thought at first it might be the ram so i ran a memtest on both sticks overnight, and they passed, but i wasn't completely convinced so i got ahold of another pair of (new) ram, and the same thing happens.

    both sticks x 133 bus speed = hang 1 stick x 133 bus speed = boot both sticks x 160 bus speed (stock ram speed) = boot but then turbo boost doesnt work on the cpu if it isn't at the cpu's stock bus speed
