recently my Intel D915GEV started acting funky on me. At first, it just corrupted it's BIOS, after solving that it seemed to work fine.
Now, it turns on fine but gets stuck at POST code D5 with no display. Post card is fine.
What I tried so far:
Reflow the PLCC32 socket
Try an SST49LF004B instead of AT49LH00B4
Try different BIOS versions (all were verified when the eeprom corrupted)
Try different pentium 4's (2.8GHz and 3GHz, all working)
Try different RAM sticks
Try injecting 3v into the cmos battery
Press down on the chipset and CPU socket
Reflow the components around the plcc32 socket

Oddly, with an PCIe card present, the POST code changes to CC

Anybody who knows what the issue might be?

Always has the weirdest issues happen, and always is all alone with them
