Problems with a biostar motherboard!!? I don't remember the model of the motherboard, but this is the problem: when I'm trying to transfer information from a hard disk to another one the machine gets jammed or frozen. I did the same thing on another computer and there was no problem..the computer works fine with a maxtor sata hard disk, but if I try to exchange info between the disk, it gets frozen a friend told me to check the cpu configuration, maybe there is the problem..you know, I don't like biostar at all. I hope you can give me a hand.
Biostar Motherboard wont start with ram in one of the sockets. Please help? I had the biostar mcp6p-m2, which has 2 ram slots, installed in my computer and the other day it stopped starting. I narrowed it down to the RAM slots (via the beep codes). I took both sticks out and found that it would pass the POST with either stick of ram in one slot, and not with either stick in the other. So after trying a couple of solutions (blowing air into the slot to check for fluff etc) after a couple of suggestions from yahoo answers, still no success so I bought a new motherboard, exactly the same make and model, but its turned out to be the mcp6p-m2+. So I put the new motherboard in anyway with both sticks of ram and have the same problem! Again it will start with either stick in one slot and not with either stick in the second. Further to that, the on board usb ports dont work. Aside from returning the board, any ideas on the RAM issue? Also any chance anyone has resolved the usb issue? I did have the same usb issue with the 1st MCp6P board I had (the newly installed one is my 3rd!) Although more research I do more it seems to be a common occurence in Biostar boards. Alan have tried uninstalling - reinstalling usb drivers. Have also tried disabling - re-enabling them in the bios. Have also tried changing the jumper positions.

Hitachi 250 GB SATA Hard Drive detects only 137 GB in Biostar P4M80-M4? I'm trying to install a 250 GB Hitachi Sata Hard Drive to my P4M80-M4 Biostar Motherboard and everthing goes smoothly, but the only thing is that in the BIOS setup it detects that is a 250 GB Hard Drive but when I'm about to install Windows XP Professional it only gives me like 137 GB's. What should I do, should I update the BIOS with a specific SATA driver or something? I have Windows XP Service Pack 2, I updated the BIOS and the problem persists. The BIOS recognizes the 250 GB but Windows does not, I read that once the BIOS recognizes the drive and I have at least Windows XP Service Pack 1a the problem would be gone. What should I do differently or what should I do now, what is the problem?
CPUs and G-Cards for BIOSTAR P4M900 M4 Motherboard? Hi. My computer currently sucks... A lot...

I know that I will need at least a dual-core processor and a decent GFXCard. So which fairly cheap ones do you guys recommend that will work with my motherboard? Keep in mind, I would still like enough power for modern video games to work as well. Also what tempature should my harddrive usually run at? Lately I have been paranoid it is going to die soon. I have had it for about 4 years. It usually runs at about 30 degrees C... Sometimes a bit over...
Is This Biostar Motherboard A Worthy Purchase? I'm pulling my hair out here, trying to figure out if this is a good investment... Biostar A740G M2+ http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813138112 I want it primarily for a HTPC, due to it's DVI port. It would rarely be used for gaming, although Colin McCrae's DiRT would be a possibility. Will this integrated Radeon HD 2100 have enough power to run a game like DiRT or should I keep looking? I'm not planning on making a fantastic computer. I just want something that has some power, and can handle at least minimal to moderate gaming. It's been said that the HD 2100 will cover the basics and a bit more. Any ideas? Thanks in advance.

IDE devices not detected on Biostar NF325-A7 motherboard. What to do? I just got a Biostar NF325-A7 motherboard and it does not detect any of my devices (80GB HD, DVD-ROM, or Floppy). Award BIOS shows this at startup: IDE Channel 0 Master: None IDE Channel 0 Slave: None IDE Channel 1 Master: None IDE Channel 1 Slave: None IDE Channel 2 Master: None Floppy disk(s) fail (40)one At first I suspected the drives weren't getting power because it doesn't feel like they're spinning, so I switched power supplies, which didn't help. Then I tried: - Switching out IDE cables - Isolating the devices (one connected to MB at a time) Both the HD and DVD jumpers are set to Master. There are no jumpers on the MB pertaining to IDE devices. Any other suggestions? Can the board be bad?

How do i unlock my Phenom II x3 To a Quad Core With Biostar? I have a biostar motherboard and a Phenom II x3 720 processor, i was told i can unlock this into a quad core by going to advanced settings then advanced cpu calibration and setting it to Auto. I have done this twice and both times when it went to reboot it just sat there in black screen. I was told by some people to keep trying it that it can take several times to do this and to keep trying, i was also told that it is a symptom that my fourth core was defective and finally a third camp told me to update the bios?? Does anyone with experience and not just guessing have an opinion? EDIT: I hear somewhere you can get the old bios version, any links?? Instructions?

Why does my computer keep turning off in the middle of a online game? I just finished building a new gaming computer. A8N-E Asus Motherboard Biostar Egate GeForce 6600GT PCI-E video card AMD Athlon 64 Processor 3800+ 939 Linksys wireless-G PCI adapter with speedbooster network card Windows XP Professional x64 Edition Seagate 320G SATA hard drive 52x CD SATA driver Antec Neo HE 500w power suply I have installed all up-to-date drivers. The only driver in question is the network card. I could only find one that would work. I start playing any online game though and it plays great for about 5-10 min. then computer just shuts down in the middle of the game. Sometimes it turns back on by itself after a few seconds. Other times I have to turn it back on myself. Never got any error message or anything after turning it back on though. One time even punched desk after about 5 minutes of it shutting off on me and it just turned back on itself. Check power connections in and out of computer can not find any bad. Can anyone help me? I know it is not over heating I have it running at 30C try getting most computer to run at that. I know it is not the game becouse I have many friend that play game also and do not have this problem. Already tryed reinstalling windows. did not help any. Not a virus it is a brand new computer. I have one gig of memory so I would say it is not that. I will get more just in case though.

Does the Biostar A770 A2+ motherboard support 140watt processors? Alright, Ive ordered the AMD Phenom 9950 Black Edition 2.6GHz 140watt processor from NewEgg.

Thanks guys!
