I plugged everything in and it booted up fine for about 15 minutes. During the process of partitioning my HDD, the computer began to experience graphical artifates and glitches. Weird patterns, colors, symbols and missing letters. So I have yet to install windows or alter the bios.
Even when I start it up and enter the bios, I get the same glitches. It doesn't lock up at all but its difficult to read any of the words due to the issue. The board doesnt seem to support AGP so i can't test my older computers card on it.
Any suggestions as to a possible problem that would case this?
