I know this is a bit of a necropost but this is the thread Google found when I was looking into it. I had installed 'nusb36e.exe' for USB drive support. I edited sysdm.cpl to change 'Me' to '98' and removed the 'Disable System Restore' option. I just did it by editing the file in Notepad++, I only …

Make sure you've got those jumpers right. As they often disable the rear panel output and suchlike.

Clear the cmos first!

Seeing as Asrock is like a cheap Asus board, try the Asus boot trick. Connect a PS2 keyboard and hold down the DEL key as you power on. See if it'll post. Nice to see Ian Anderson! 😁

Phil did a vid with a 7770 ( I think it was). He got the CCC installed then used the "snappy drivers" thing, to get the driver part installed. Edit : Found the vid, not the same card but the same problem with the drivers. https://youtu.be/yTFv4x8srL0

On my Asus board, I just set the FSB to 400 for 1600 which gives 3.62 Ghz. My E8400 can do that at stock volts without breaking a sweat. That setting gives me a perfect 1066 divider for my Corsair Vengeance memory to run at its default speed. I'm well happy with that and it is one of my favourite …

Local hardware store, buy some nuts that fit the screws or a suitably sized combo. With a stack of penny washers. Use two part epoxy glue and add enough washers, with the nut, to recreate the correct height. Take care to get them centred before the glue sets!

Oh man, what a shame, but you can't win them all I suppose. Still, nice restoration as usual.

I just don't like the x48 chipset. In fact that's the only Asus board that's failed on me, but that was a Rampage Formula.
