    MSI MS-7778 (Jasmine)

    I have one of these mother boards in an HP Pavilion p7-1400. I have issues with windows having a Bad_Pool_Caller. However the motherboard seems to have hardware issues.
    It does not see the DVD drive nor does it boot from a Knopptix live DVD. When I attempted to run a full system restore the computer states something along the line of hard drive is locked. I tried to use a USB DVD drive as a boot device without success.
    I've removed all peripherals to no effect. Swapping the memory did nothing either. Clearing the BIOS with the jumper had no effect. I did check the power supply and the voltages look ok.
    The only remaining step I have not performed is a power supply swap.
    Have there been any issues with these? Haven't found anything online.

    Sounds like the HDD may have a bad board. (bad PCB)
    Good luck with the HDD being usable again, if true!

    There's a chance that the HDD requires a board swap.

      Wrong. The PC won't boot from a DVD either, and it looks like the HDD is detected and at least partially readable. Definitely not a bad HDD controller board.

      IMO, the issue is more likely to be with the motherboard.

        It may indeed be a bad onboard ATA controller or southbridge, like on an early Pentium motherboard I tried to get going one time...

        Only mentioned the HDD, because I had an issue where MHDD didn't detect squat for problems, but the Windows installer will error out or it will appear that it can make it, but on reboot, the Windows loader gives an error.

          On the motherboard, maybe, but it's definitely not the HDD itself. If the PC won't boot from a DVD disc (ie. a completely different drive), it's not the HDD at fault.

            I'm planning to try another power supply and then suspect the motherboard. I need to test the DVD drive and HDD on another computer (including their cables).

              I just had to replace the optical drive on the eMachines T3516A, because it would do its thing, but then the BIOS goes back to the message telling me to insert a boot disk.

                Honestly I think there's about a 99% chance it's the DVD drive gone bad, at least for that part of the problem anyway. I very rarely ever see the motherboard's controller go bad in such a way that gives that symptom.
