Why don't you check the website of the motherboard vendor and the cpu compatibility list ?
What's the point of owning a card if you don't know what the error codes mean ?
Have you got a GUARANTEED WORKING stick of memory with no faults in ?
Have you tried another CPU ?
if its an award bios board, it should mean memory not present or bad. try another memory module. if it still doesnt work, try another dimm slot. it could be one or more bad dimm slots.
Could it be CPU matter ? but it's LGA 775...from I can read and learn...there is some different core for LGA 775, that's I've been thinking...
msi sometimes uses either award or ami for their bios so guessing what bios vendor it is could be tricky. but if its ami bios, a post code stop at C1 means it stopped at setting the processor boot strap information. maybe cpu not recognised or supported by the board? try another known working cpu with a slower fsb?
this is either a ram/cpu not recognised or supported problem.
I haven't put any memories on it so I reduced the posibility of faulty memory...
trying to debug it one step to another...
There's a possiblity on memory as well...but in this case I didn't put it yet...how can the software at BIOS saying it's a faulty one unless it's doing something quirky..??
