Asus striker extreme(ly) FUCKING SHIT.

Won't post half the time, the other half it crashes on windows boot.

Oh, and the times it will boot? yeah, for that to happen you have to unplug everything from the mobo, reset the bios, plug stuff in, sacrifice a goat and hope like fuck.

then it crashes and you have to do it again.

:x

You got cloos as to why its busted? Didn't do anything silly like flash the bios to put a faster cpu in did you? Loose standoff floating round the back of the mobo? Or maybe its too much time running all of the internets! :lol:

it has the dreaded cpu init fuckup

which can be curable. or you make asus send you a new bios chip.

or you buy a new mobo and swear lots.

Woo! appears to be fixed.

oddly it seems it was my soundcard causing the issues.

I fucking hate tribbleshooting.

Obviously, you are using the wrong hammers :roll:

Personally, I'd choose a shot-filled dead blow hammer, or possibly a 4lb club hammer, with a hickory shaft. Those new composite shafts just don't have the right ring.

well done though.
