This is yet another in my many problems with my new build!
Okay, here's the problem. Many bootable dos based utilities like WD Diagnostics, Seagate Tools, Hitachi Tools won't boot in my system(DS3L). Most start showing the dos as loading, then I get a blank screen, and Hitachi Tools will actually boot, start detecting drives than it gets to controller 4 and freezes and the speakers screams. These disks all work in my other desktop (P4PSE)with no issues. I'm referring to System 2 in my sig line. I'm about to give up and just and this system over to my 11 year old to save my sanity.
And no, I don't think its the ram, I've done thirty two passes in the most recent Memtest and overnight with Windows Memory Test. The motherboard has the most recent bios and drivers. Dr. House, where are you?
