recently purchased around 3 months ago one gigabyte intel motherboard h61m-ds2 and built a system with a help of an assembler.
cpu is intel g630 dual core and ram corsair value select 4 gb(cmv4gx3m1a1339c9) and 500 gb segate hdd.
it has a booting issue, not regular but intermittent.
on several booting it start with front system led and hdd led on and cpu fan also. but after usuual gigabyte logo a screen appears as heading dual bios uefi with blue back ground,then with in few seconds system stops(front led indicaters,cpu fan ,even smps fan but then restart with in few second. this start and stop usually happen twice then ultimately system boot.
after booting hours running with no problem.
me using win xp.
but this booting problem is intermittent ,eg occurs like 2 times out of 10.,many times after one or 2 days.
i changed the smps(me using local low cost smps in india) but problem still persist and changed with new cmos battery(for another similar problem) and last time i changed sata ports for dvd player and hdd. I saw after changing sata ports the fault didn't occur for 20 to 25 days.
recently i change some bios setting(though i am not a tech person) in memory dram setting.
under M.I.T ,dram timing selectable i select quick instead of auto and channel interleaving and rank interleaving set enabled instead of auto.
any way before it i always set optimized default.
long story . if any one can help what sud be the approach.
still i didn't contact local accel frontline in kolkata(where i bought the motherboard).
