New (old) problem... HELP!
I have an ASUS A8N32SLI with 4x512 Corsair XMS sticks of memory, and an Opteron170 cpu. Have been doing overclocking (not gently, but nothing over the top), and have been hit by 'Bad BIOS Checksum' error, which follows the video card BIOS paragraph. I've tried pulling the plug and CMOS battery, and then the battery followed by the Clear RTC, IT'S STUCK LIKE CHUCK! Can't get past this error message.
I've read other forums (Googled for this error) and it seems that my RAM (memory) will probably be the culprit, though I never really saw a good explanation of what causes this. Will have a friend check my RAM in his system, see if it's still good.
Anyone know about this error and how to narrow down or specify the hardware (or software) at fault? Please help, my gaming rig is down!! (...my clanmates are gonna have a field day with this... :roll: )
