Title: GA-880GA-UD3H BIOS wont show up!
Post by: Mortis on November 03, 2010, 04:49:36 pm

I got my GA-880GA-UD3H today, it does NOT boot BIOS. I have Corsair XMS3 8GB (2x4GB) 1333mhz memory and Phenom II 1055T.
When i press "Del", i only get the white blinking underscore, someone got an idea?

Hi Mortis and welcome to the forum

Have you tried to BOOT with only 1 stick of RAM on the motherboard?
Have you checked that the 8 Pin & 24 Pin connectors are fully seated?
Are you getting any POST beeps?

Could you post back with more details of your build PSU, Graphics Card etc.?

I use the internal graphicscard, and a Antec EarthWatts 500W PSU.
I also have tried with one ram stick, also checked cables.

I get the normal boot beep, but thats all.

Have you got the 8 pin 12V connector inserted near the CPU?

I just tried to remove my Intel Pro/1000 nic, and suddenly it booted! Can it be IRQ crash?

Try it in another slot and see if that makes any difference.
