i was wondering when this was going to come about alby, sorry to hear but understand why mate, i wish you all the best what ever you do and thx for everything ?
well if thats the case and we havent be given a full description of how things were fitted its probably broken the trace connections under the socket to the pins that go to the necessary board components to work properly as well
yes i had a look and all i saw was FF refering to Boot but no description of what was happening on boot , other than that im sure theres a main egva forum you could find to ask the codes or if anyone else has experienced these issues or codes
would be good if you could find the manual to read the error codes to see what they refer to, can you get the pdf file for it to see what posting codes it has in it
alby said and gave permission the other day to someone with cpuz issues not reading right and they can use an earlier cpuz's for the earlier platforms , i read it
theres one for sale on ebay in arizona for $200 US , but it has a power of 250 watt, (which i suspect is TDP)
