I have another problem and once again need help.
I completed my build, started it up and installed Vista. All was well and I was making little adjustments - screen res, clock, etc - and then realized that I should take a step back and install drivers.
My first choice was for my MOBO. After the install was complete, I rebooted and that's where my problem is: It won't go past the Gigabyte start up screen. I can't select any other options either - it's as if my keyboard died at the same time (my mouse also). So I'm stuck on this start up screen.
All appeared fine until I put in the MOBO drivers - grrrr.
Here's what I have:
Processor: Intel Core 2 Quad Q6600 2.4GHz 2X4mb L2 cache

CPU Cooler: Arctic Cooling Freeze 7 Pro
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16835186134
I tried re-booting and rebooting into "F8", both with no luck. I get a short bios beep on start up. If I could go back in time 1 hour, I would - and frisbee the Gigabye install disc.
Any help would be great. Thanks in advance,
