Hi -
As the subject says, I am getting this message at start-up. The next line says type "Y" to go into the BIOS, or "N" to continue start-up. Neither Y or N does anything. There is a "force BIOS" button on back which when pressed (it lights and stays pressed) the system goes right into the BIOS. After a glimmer of hope, again, I can not navigate because it stopped taking keyboard input. I watched a few youtube videos on clearing/resetting the BIOS, tried it, still same issue.I even went and purchased a brand new keyboard thinking this one just died. Same issue.
Scenario is power-up, a split second I see the splash screen, then the Marvell BIOS message with my system disk visible (also says hit "Control-M to go into BIOS", doesn't accept it) then after dark screen, the "unsuccessful POST" message appears.
What led up to this is I purchased 2 new 1 TB drives, connected 1, and this all started. Since then have disconnected it.
Gear is as follows:
Core i7 960 3.20 GHz L2 8 MB QPI 4.8 GTs - 4 Cores with Hyperthreading
24 GB - 6 x 4 GB - Corsair Vengeance Triple Channel DDR3 - 1600 MHz
1 GB nVidia GeForce GTX 560 Ti
120 GB Intel 510 Series SATA III 6 Gb/s Solid State Disk Drive
CD-RW / DVD-RW Dual Layer LightScribe Drive
Keyboard Logitech USB K740
and the drives I want to add are Seagate 1TB SATA
Hopefully this info helps.
