Title: GIGABYTE 990FXA-UD5 & AMD FX 8120 - Can't work
Post by: Garka on January 07, 2012, 09:20:06 am

Hello Everyone i got a problem like everyone else.

I'm having some trouble with the Gigabyte 990FXA-UD5.

I recently bought myself an AMD FX 8120 - on first day it run normally then i left my pc on for the nite to test its endurance.

Morning i found the screen frozen and i had to restart but once i restarted, it wouldn't bootup no matter what i did (BIOS,reinstalling,etcs..) First i figured it was the CPU when i tested it, i found no problems with the cpu as i tested on 2 of my friends motherboards with AM3+ compatibility.

But i reinstall my old Phenom 2 555, it had no problems.

It looks like my gigabyte mobo is unable to start with the AMD FX and the reason i got the mobo in the first place.

Hi and welcome.

Have you checked to see if you have a supporting BIOS installed as I suspect that could very well be your problem ?

Yes,

I tried all the BIOS

F4, F5, F6, F7h

it's just stuck at the screen where to press 'DEL' to enter the BIOS but i can't even enter the BIOS when the FX is on the motherboard.
