990FX UD7 Rev 1.1 Freezing
« on: February 04, 2013, 04:56:22 pm »
hello everyone,

I am having problems with my 990FX UD7 randomly freezing.
It will freeze randomly in the OS and even in the BIOS.

It worked for the longest time with zero problems then one day out of the blue it would boot to a black screen and my monitor's power light would blink and the screen would say No Signal.

I figured it might be the video card causing this issue so I swapped it from a PNY GTX460 to the GTX560.

Now no matter what video card I use it seems to randomly lock up.

So I dug through my box of spare bits and found a PC speaker  I plugged that into the UD7 and it gives a single beep.

I've tried clearing the CMOS using the CLR CMOS button on the board, I've tried loading failsafe defaults.

I have also tried swapping the ram out to a spare stick of Wintec AMPX 1333 DDR3.  It all ends in the same result.

The debug LED just says FF most of the time which I assume means everything should be fine.

Here is the system specs:

Gigabyte 990FX UD7 v1.1 (Bios F7)
AMD Phenom II X4 810
2x4gb Corsair XMS3 TW3X4G1333C9A Memory
EVGA GTX560 FTW edition
Corsair GS800 PSU
OS Kubuntu 12.10 and Windows 7 Home Premium

Any help would be wonderful I am at a loss as to what to try next...
