I am going stir crazy. Here is my problem. I recently took my machine apart to clean it thoroughly, and once put back together, it doesn't work. Now, before I give you all the details, know that DFI Tech Support is NON-EXISTENT. It is just a single guy who always sounds like he is eating chips and watching tv when you call, and their only solution offered is a damn RMA.
Once re-assembled, upon reboot, my machine keeps saying the following:
Verifying DMI Pool Data...............
AMD Data Change...Update New Data to DMI! Update Success
Now, I have done my homework, and I have reset my BIOS a dozen times to no avail. This has happened twice before when making hardware changes, and it magically corrected itself after a couple dozen reboots. But i haven't been able to get it running for 3 weeks now, and I am dying. to help eliminate unnecessary solutions that have already tried, I have done the following:
- Numerous CMOS Resets
- Removal of ALL Hardware and reboots with each piece added back in one by one
PLEASE HELP. I paid top dollar for this board because of the immensely good feedback and reviews, but it has been nothing but a headache.
My System Configuration is as follows:
- DFI LP DK 790FX-M2RS AM2+
- AMD Athlon 64 X2 5400 Brisbane 2.8GHz
- G.SKILL 8GB (4 x 2GB) 240-Pin DDR2 SDRAM DDR2 1066 (PC2 8500)
- CORSAIR CMPSU-750HX 750W ATX12V PSU
- VisionTek 900244 Radeon HD 4870 512MB GDDR5 Video Card
- 6 HDDS Totaling 3.3 TB
