hey LTT members
I bought a new Asrock B85M HDS 3 days ago,and it works fine, but when I unplug the power cable from the pc and replug it, the pc boots several time like the first boot after building a pc, I think it's a mobo problem. So what do you think of that ? is it a mobo problem ? and is it a critical problem ? and how can I solve it ?

and my secend problem is that my pc freezes randomly, about 1 time a day  the temps and memorie usage andspeed are normal , and now I'm running a memetest, what do you think of this problem ?

PS I've never overclocket anything, and every thing are set in normal setting

how many sticks of RAM are installed?

 

run with one stick

 

ensure the power plugs to the mobo are secure

 

a lose power plug will cause the repeat power cycles

I'm using one stick of Hyperx fury 8gb?

Do you mean 24 pins cable or 8 pins cable ?

btw how much circles or time should I run the memetest for ?

run for a few hours of the memtest say around 4-6 hours

Clear CMOS and check the power cables again

 

do you have another PSU to test?

 

try the paper clip test for the PSU

 

if the PSU is ok

 

i may point to mobo problems

I think the psu is ok

 

I'll try a Tacens Mars 700 ( it works just fine for more than 2 years in an other pc )

 

and  I'll clear CMOS

BTW the pc freezes randomly sometimes it happen after 4 or even 6 hours after booting the pc, so testing the pc after these changes may take the hole day

looks like mobo trouble

 

you might need to replace it
