The retailer said he won't give warranty if there was any problem if I assembled it myself. So cud'nt shoot unboxing.


What do you mean by won't give any warranty ? Did you purchase this from black Market ?

Warranty is not given by the shop resellers alone, its from the company directly through the reseller. You can claim your warranty at any point, if there's a failure in the hardware with proper bills & warranty invoice.

BTW from which shop did you purchase in S.P Road.

I tried the putting RAM in other socket. Same thing. Now it doesn't show Blue screen also. It just restarts after showing Windows logo.

BTW why your reseller won't give warranty if it is assembled by yourself ???

IMO that PSU is a crap & post the purchased config with the price paid...

Do you have any other PSU with you? If you do, try to connect that to your new rig. Try to find out if your mobo is working fine.

I thought 700W watt PSU was enough even if it gave 60% of its rated watts. And its +12v rating was 35 A. Minimum required for my MSI card (with i7 3.4 ghz system) was 22 A. So I thought it would be fine.

I am doing it already.

Forgot to mention 1 more symptom:
The CPU fan used to make loud sound (spinning very fast) while installing windows. and Temp of CPU was showing 42 Degree C and speed of CPU fan was around 3K-4K.

these companies cant even deliver their rated specs. we shouldnt judge by what these generic PSU companies say.

What shall I do now?
Go to the retailer and ask him to resolve the problem?
Change the PSU?
Change the RAM?
or all of the above?

okay, let us start afresh.

Remove your Graphic card and use on-board graphics for a while.
Go to BIOS and load Failsafe defaults.
Try some other Windows XP/7 disc - clean format.

It seems to be working!
I was already using onboard VGA.. and RAM is in 2nd slot... I loaded Failsafe defaults and rebooted. Same windows installation started working! Thanks ICO! but What could have been the problem? Any further action required? (such as changing PSU?)

Thanks :)

My board, Gygabyte 880g GM UD2H is Revision 1.4... The latest Rev is 2.2 or 2.0... Is that ok? will a BIOS update upgrade it to Rev 2.2?

The problem jst returned. I was installing mobo drivers and its started restarting again and again after windows logo. The CPU fan was roaring at high speed. What do I do now??

I see that you've bought a Transcend RAM. Can you run memtest86+ and tell the result?

Download the ISO from here: *www.memtest.org/download/4.20/memtest86+-4.20.iso.zip and burn on a CD.
