Power on-off-on Problems with New Build Z68A-GD65(G3)

I'm hoping someone has seen these issues and can help me, although I realize this is a vague issue. I'm working on a new build. On power up everything looks good but then I get a power off and back on (like a reset). Sometimes it happens very quickly; other times it will stay on for roughly 5-10 minutes before the reset. I've checked all the connectors, case wires look ok, BIOS info looks correct.
The other issue is that when I tried to do the Win 7 install, it loads the files, goes to the "Starting Windows" screen, and freezes there (until the next power off problem shuts things down).
Any ideas on what to try to narrow things down?  Seems like it almost has to be the power supply or motherboard?

You have more than a Z68A-GD65(G3), please list he rest of your components. See my signature below for example of what to list.

I've disconnected everything but the mouse, keyboard and monitor and still have the power resets.
Tried one memory module at a time... still fails.
Played with lower memory freq settings... still fails.
Finally pulled the MB out, bench tested it to rule out shorting in the case; tried it with and without other peripherals... still fails.
I think I'll RMA the MB, although I suppose it could be the psu (unlikely, I'd think).
I had two bad motherboards in my last build. I had hope that MSI would be better...

  • Problem with new build, Motherboard/Case

    Hi, I bought a new pc that arrived Friday, It is my first build so bare with me on some bits.
    But to cut it short I have the NZXT Phantom case with a P67A-GD53 Motherboard, And when I screw it all down to the case I cannot fit my GPU in (GTX 570 Power Edition) It gets blocked by the PCI slots at the back, And at first I didnt have my I/O Shield on, But took it off and instaled that and now the motherboard physically cannot screw in at the top without me bending the board..Do I have a dodgy case, Am I installing wrong or just missing the obvious like a moron ?
    Any help much appreciated

  • Wifi problems with new ipad

    I'm trying to learn how to correct wifi problems with new iPad.  It is the wifi only, 64GB model.  I want to be able to use it at work, where we have a great wifi network.  I can usually connect to our network with no problem, but after an hour or so my iPad loses the network.  When I try to reconnect, I see that the network is showing full strength reception, but I get the error message from the iPad that I am "Unable to join" the network.  My iPhone connects to the same network seamlessly, as do all of the other iPhones of my co-workers and the older generation iPads that some of our staff has.
    At other locations, I typically have no problems (home, apple store, etc.) but I have had the same situation pop up at a coffee shop where I could see that there was a wifi network available, but I could not join it even though it was the shop's free wifi. 
    I have tried turning the iPad off, turning off wifi and turning it back on again, and forgetting the wifi network in question.  I can't think of any other methods that are available to an end user to correct the problem. 
    I have already gone to the Apple store to swap out the unit, and the newer one is having the same symptoms. 
    Can anyone offer any advice here?  This is quite frustrating.

    No problem! Have a read at this most interesting article which has special significance as regards your models!

  • Problems with new catalyst

    I Have a problem with newer catalyst version 4.7 and 4.8..sometimes the screen goes totally black,it's like the montitor goes into sleep mode or screensaver.
    This can happen at startup or after while the only thing i can do is to restart the computer by turning it off(or reset).
    With cat 4.6 and the drivers before everything works fine.
    I tried fastwrites on/off(no good)
    Disable Vpu recover(no good)
    Raise agp voltage to 1.6V(no good)
    I also tried asus own driver but the same thing happens.
    However i came to think of if there is anything i should change in power managment in bios because the comp won't wake up from sleep mode when pushing on the keyboard or moving the mouse(this is with cat 4.6 wich works great otherwise)
    I hope someone have an answer to my mysterious problem

    At this point, I'm loathing my decision to mess with my vid drivers at all, and wondering how come the vid card has started to lock up in 3d..  I start messing with all sorts of settings.. Finally, tuning the AGP speed from 8X to 4X totally resolved the freezes.
    QUESTION: WHY ALL OF A SUDDEN DID 8X AGP STOP WORKING???
    AMD 64 3200+
    K8T-NEO
    Antec 430W PSU
    ATI RADEON 9600 PRO AGP
    SB LIVE
    1GB CORSAIR C2 DDR (2x512)
    Lite-ON DVD/CD+RW
    Windows XP SP2
    I have never got my 8x AGP to work, its always hard locks when I use it...dunno why I don't really care. When I upgrade to a pure 8x AGP card i might if it still happens. Actually if it continues to happen there is a good chance I will get rid of this board and get the nforce probable. But at any rate, setting AGP to 4x has always fixed every video card problem I have had since putting this computer together. So try that I suspect it will fix your problem as well.
    Also note that we have very similar setup's so try it and let us know if that works out for you.

  • Problem with Weblogic Builder SP1

    I have a problem with Weblogic Builder SP1. I basically re-used my EJB deployment
    descriptors from WL5.1 in WL8.1. Before SP1, i have no problem loading my EJB
    in WB. But with SP1, WB throws weblogic.marathon.model.LoadFailureException.
    I re-attempted by jarring my EJB with WL5.1 descriptors and used my friend's WB
    (not SP1) to export new descriptors which I used to re-jar. This new EJB is again
    not recognised by WB SP1?
    What is wrong?

    Problem with new version 4.3.2 apps not working " after update to the new version "
    i was in 4.3.1 then i do the update , but now after update i face this problem , so what i Supposed to do ?!!

    Hi There
    Had the same problem as you. App would terminate when launched.
    Solution to working You Tube app:
    -Go to playstore
    - Uninstall app (it doesn't remove the app, only removes the update)
    - "Et Voila", working again.
    This doesn't correct the problem, it's just a workaround for you to be able to use youtube app again.
    Hope it helped.
    Best Regards

    I bought new i phone 5 3 days back, after that asked for new update which is 6.1.4, after updating my iphone i am not able to use cellular data services.

  • List of Problems with new Web Mail

    List of Problems with NEW Web Mail :
    - At first doesn't open full page message list or retain full page as default setting, have to drag down bar
    - Only shows 20 message lines after “pulling down” the divider, screen partially empty until I scroll down.  It should show at least 26, preferably all available
    - After moving bar, bar moves back up after going back to inbox (not delete message) after reading a message, have to move it down again, and again...
    - Doesn't go to next message when delete message on screen is selected, no setting option for default to do this.
    - There is a drop down to select which folder to move a selected email to.  The initial display shows 7 usable choices, with the usual slider and arrow to show more choices.  The space on the slider clearly shows more choices are present (actually about 20 or so are there), but any attempt to use the slider or arrow to see more choices causes the drop-down to instantly disappear.  I can't move the selected field with arrow keys either.  I can select any of the visible 7 choices, and move an email to only one of the 7.  NOTE: This one works in both IE and Firefox, but if Verizon Webmail was fully web standard (see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Web_standards) compliant it would also work in my preferred browser, Mozilla Seamonkey, the direct descendant of the original Mozilla browser.  Webmail should be FULLY web standard.
    - Occasionally a message will move from inbox to trash, without NO indication or command to move them.
    - Emails occasionally flash an error message and simply disappear - not to trash or other findable place, just disappear.  No time to read the error message either.
    - No way to set a whitelist for supposed spam emails, unless the whitelist for “Blocking” is the same.  Very unclear.
    - How can I switch my service back to the original, basic, email which works ok?  I know it’s still there, since some of my other accounts still access it!!!
    This seems my only way of getting this info direclty to the programming staff.  If it doesn't actually do this, will SOMEONE PLEASE FORWARD THIS MESSAGE TO THEM !?!  
    Thanks!

    Contrarily, it is Verizon's, as well as other companies like Verizon whose customer base uses a wide variety of web browsers, web page designers' responsibility to use only standard W3C-recognized code and not to use non-standard non-W3C-recognized code, e.g., Microsoft's Internet Explorer specific code, when designing their web pages. In my opinion based on my observations, Verizon's web page designers are too often guilty of using IE-specific code.

  • Strange problem with my build JAR

    Hiii everybody... I'm having a strange problem with my build (JAR file)... when I work with the Eclipse and I click in the table that returns the clients stored in my PostGre database it works fine, but when I build my application and it generates my JAR file and I open it and click in the same table to return the objects that I have.. it does not appears anymore.. just show when I work with eclipse... and the database is the same for both.
    I already checked the database path in my properties file... and the application recognize the database because I can login and there isn't any runtime exception...
    In that application I work with Hibernate and Spring... for me it is very strange because the application works fine when I run by eclipse... but does not return the database data when I click on my Jar file to open the application..
    Someone can help me with that?
    I dont know if the problem is in the Spring, Hibernate, Libraries...
    thanks in advance...

    So what's the error then? Are there any error messages? Have you checked the console? Or are you just clicking on the jar and you wouldn't even see the errors if there are any?
    What do the logs say?
    You're not giving a lot to work on here.

  • Before I buy has there been any problems with new 27 iMacs?

    Before I spend my hard earned cash does anyone know if there has been any problems with new 27 iMacs?

    Hello richard from Folsom:
    Are you inside or outside?  (  I could not resist, I lived in Sactown).
    Anyway, advice is frequently worth what you pay for it, and mine is free.
    If you want it, buy it.  The posts above are right on the mark (except waiting is probably overly-cautious).  The best advice (from anamusic) is to buy the extended warranty - well worth the money.

  • I just started using my iphone 5s. I have a problem with new incoming emails from my POP account. Why are they marked as read automatically even though I have not even opened them yet.

    I just started using my iphone 5s. I have a problem with new incoming emails from my POP account. Why are they marked as read automatically even though I have not even opened them yet.
    At first I thought it might be because I was using simultaneously my old iPhone 4S so it somehow realized the emails where being pushed to another device and the it marked as read, this has nothing to do since I have deleted the email account from the iPhone 4S

    Contact the email provider for assistance with their service.
