Actually, I'd also go into the BIOS and reset it to the manufacturers defaults, just in case you made a change at some point to tweak settings for more performance, etc. I.E. make sure there's no overclocking or anything like that.
Yes, I've done that several times. In fact, since my BIOS is having issues preserving settings and shows the CMOS checksum failure quite often, I usually have to revert to defaults just to boot. This, despite a brand new CMOS battery. This is the other symptom in my original email that I can't yet explain. But, if it ends up being a motherboard HW issue, then anything could go wrong including corrupted CMOS. thanks, Brett
