| Flash your bios..... Unplug your PSU from the wall Take out the battery by the orange PCIe slot... then touch a screwdriver to the clr_cmos jumpers between the SATA ports and the silver heatsink... By touching 1 piece of metal to both jumper pins you will short the CMOS causing everything on your board to return to default settings.... |

Thread Starter | Thanks guys. Well after my computer restarted about 15 times it finally booted up and I was able to re-enable hyperthreading. I just bought this system from iBuyPower.com and I've had nothing but problems with it. It can't be normal for a system to lock up like that just by disabling hyperthreading? I'm also getting loud random clicks and pops comming out of my MOTU mkII even when their is no audio playing. It scared the shit out of me. I'm using the latest MOTU drivers. Are there any known problems between MOTU and Gigabyte motherboards that I may not know? And to top it off Acid 7 Pro crashes on about 75% of the songs I try to open up. Songs that play perfectly fine on my 2 other old computers. Some open perfectly fine. I'm so dissapointed right now, my 5yr old system runs better than this. I'll probably be sending this system back in a couple of days if I can't resolve these major issues. Here are my system specs maybe you guys might have some pointers. Case - Nzxt Alpha Gaming Tower Case - Black iBUYPOWER Labs - iBUYPOWER Harmony SRS Sound Reduction System - Improved Airflow Silent Fans Processor - Intel® Core™ i7 920 Processor (4x 2.66GHz/8MB L3 Cache) Processor Cooling - CoolerMaster V8 CPU Cooling Fan System Memory - 6 GB [2 GB X3] DDR3-1600 Triple Memory Module - Corsair Dominator Video Card - ATI Radeon HD 5850 - 1GB - Single Card Motherboard - GIGABYTE GA-EX58-UD3R Power Supply - 750 Watt -- Thermaltake EVO_Blue W0307RU Power Supply - SLI Ready Primary Hard Drive - 320 GB HARD DRIVE -- 16M Cache, 7200 RPM, 3.0Gb/s - Single Drive) Data Hard Drive - 1 TB HARD DRIVE -- 16M Cache, 7200 RPM, 3.0Gb/s - Single Drive) Optical Drive(22X Dual Format/Double Layer DVD±R/±RW + CD-R/RW Drive - Black) Operating System - Microsoft Windows XP Pro SP2 32bit |

| Not a bad setup... GPU is overkill for audio but nice for gaming... I might have gone with a 32mb cache drive for audio but nothing jumps out at me as wrong or incompatible... Anything electronic is subject to malfunction though Could be a faulty mobo... could be bad RAM.... Are you using the newest Bios version? Did you run memtest??? Not to be an ass but are the 3 sticks of ram in the 3 same colored (White) slots?? and nothing is in the Blue DIMM slot??? You can test the RAM (And the slots) one at a time and also run memtest.. May I ask what made you go 3x2gb and 1gb GPU on a 32-bit system? were you planning on going 64-bit in the future? |

Anyone out there with a similar setup using a Motu interface? Or running Acid Pro 7? I can't be the only one... | |
