M2N32-SLI Deluxe BSOD'ing with Phenom 9850

I just received my 9850 for my m2n32-sli deluxe wifi and got a gtx 285 since I qualified for 10% cashback.

I booted the PC up and every time it makes it to the background of my desktop and starts loading icons the computer freezes up and immediately BSODs and theres not enough time to catch a glimpse of what the error is before the computer restarts. I've tried everything besides clearing the CMOS because one time that it didn't just die quickly it said something about drivers, and there was another time that it opened up mozilla before loading my background and icons and i was on the internet just like normal, without any BSOD. But as soon as I hit the Start button to open itunes it just went.

Just looking for some advice as to what it could be, I have the newest update of the BIOS and have had it for quite some time.

You might want to run memtest and also check the hard drive. Also if you are overclocking at all run at stock to see if that is the problem

First try starting up in safe mode.. then do this:



Then restart in regular mode and see if you can catch what the blue screen says.

Thanks for that w1retap. I forgot to mention that I dropped my old 5000+ back in and it booted perfectly fine with my GTX 285, and in WoW and CS:S I haven't seen any performance increase since I guess my processor is bottlenecking me bad. I'm going to try reading that blue screen in a little while.

Extremely lame..

I tried just starting it up again and the blue screen vanished and the computer just turned off even though I changed the settings. I caught something about BIOS error included in the many lines in the blue screen and loaded an older revision. This one was 1903 I believe and it was the first one to support this processor (or at least the Asus site says so) so I checked it out. Same thing happened when I re-flashed with this BIOS.

Honestly getting hopeless, and might buy a new motherboard. I don't need the Wifi anymore and maybe having an AM2+ with better RAM options would be worth it.

I'm confused.. Do you want help or not?
What did the BSOD say? What are your ram timings and voltages? Did you run memtest from a boot disk? Did you try a CPU burn-in test from a boot disk?
