PC Specs:
Windows 7 Ultimate
3 Harddrives; 80GB, 160GB, 320GB
Video Card: Ati Radeon HD 5700
CPU: Intel Sandy Bridge 2600K
Ram: GSkill Ripjaw 16GB Total (4 x 4GB)
Hello, I purchased the Asus P8P67 Pro Rev 3.1 motherboard which is having some difficulty loading windows.
I have read that many people are having problems with this motherboard during booting.
The PC starts up fine, I am able to go into BIOS (which I updated to the latest using my USB Drive), It shows that it detects my CPU and memory.
Problem is, it detects windows on my harddrive when I let it load, and it asks me to choose an operating system from one of my harddrives. When I choose Win 7 Ultimate, everything seems to be working fine until the Starting Windows splash screen shows up. It shows for a few seconds, then just restarts the computer and it's the same cycle over and over.
Since it seems like it's detecting everything, I am hoping that the motherboard itself is fine and I don't have to RMA it. Many people who had to RMA this series motherboard couldn't even start their computers, as their fans would turn on for a few seconds and then shut off.
How can I fix this and what could be the problem?
