Just installed a A7V8X-X motherboard into a system im building, booted well
ran fine for 24 hours, soon as I put a Epson c64 printer on it started
giving me fatal error and closing down the pc ,even when I uninstalled the
printer and unplugged it after about 15mins it was starting to give me a
fatal error then closed down the pc.
Any help where to start looking for the problem much appreciated.

Hi, what is the exact fatal error message? usually it'll mention a driver
or memory address.
 
Sorry Patrick, it's over the persons house that I built it for,so I will
have to check, I am testing the printer on mine at the mo, but it all seems
ok.
 
Im going back over to my friends tonight ,so I will be able to tell what the
fatal error was.
 
Cant read the error message it goes to quick, just a shutdown and then tries
to reboot over and over again.
It seems to crash most time when the windows media player is playing.
 
Hi ,
It's not an RPC error then. Right click My Computer,, Properties,
Advanced, then under "Startup and Recovery" click Settings. In the
System Failure section, Uncheck "Automatically Restart". Restart the
computer. You should then get an error screen that will tell you the error
details when it happens. Post back with what it says.

Ron.
 
Thanks Ron, I will do A.S.A.P

Im not getting the error at the mo, I have taken out one strip of 3200 ram,
seems to be ok at the mo, I also tried to run prime95 but it will not even
start.
Any ideas ?
 
Have any PC2700 memory you can try in it? That is a 333mhz chip. Here's what
the product page says regarding memory:
"3 x DDR DIMM Sockets. Max. 3 GB unbuffered PC2100 / PC1600 non-ECC SDRAM
Memory (PC3200 Max. to 2 banks only / PC2700 Max to 4 banks only)".

By banks, they mean banks ON the memory and are not referring to the number
of memory SLOTS on the MB. A single sided module counts as 1 bank and a
double sided module counts as 2 banks. So if your running two 256m sticks of
double sidded
PC3200 ram your likely over the limit and would explain wy taking one out
stopped the error.
 
Just crashed the error message was.......a problem has as been detected and
windows has been shut down.

I'm going to say it's a memory problem. I've received this message before.
Usually when I'm trying to push the system. Set all your bios options back
to stock/auto etc.

If it's already set to staock then I'd say the memory is suspect and you
might want to give memtest86 a run to see.

Hi, if you www.Google.com for that error you'll find many-many posts on it,
it seems to be common and several different fixes depending on hardware
software of the user.
