[QUOTE="badboyxx, post: 1195346, member: 125880"] My problem: It seems that my motherboard gave up the ghost. Since a while I had a problem that my htpc was shutting down itself or crashed with a bluescreen. Then the htpc rebootet itself or I had to reset it. In the last time the things were getting worse. Often when I startet the htpc I got no hdmi signal. But when it started after many many tries it crashed again. So I wanted to flash the bios. I formatet an usb stick (fat32) and put the bios file into the root and flashed. All went good and I got the message that it was flashed but after a reboot I get always automatically into the flashing utility again. I can't start Windows no more. I removed the bios battery, cleared cmos, disconnected no needed hardware or tried different key combinations but always without success. Already existing hardware: Motherboard: ASUS P8H77-M pro (defect!?!?) CPU: Intel i3-3220T RAM: 8GB Kingston ValueRAM Kit PC-12800U CL11 HDD: System: Crucial M4 256 GB / Media: WD10JUCT 1 TB PSU: picoPSU-120-WI-25V DC/DC 120W Optical drive: Sony OptiArc Slim BluRay TV Card: Digital Devices Cine S2 v6 + Cine C/T + Digital Devices CI Modul IR-Receiver: Y.A.R.D. 2 Case: Streacom FC9B AVR: Pioneer VSX-521 + Canton Movie 65 CX 5.1 speaker TV: Sony KDL-46NX715 The new motherboard should be energy efficient, quiet and a microATX size. My system is a Windows 7 64bit with MP1. 60% I'm watching TV (generally HD), 25% watch movies (generally BluRays and HD) and 15% listen music. WiFi or Bluetooth is no must be for me. I'm also using a synology DS214+ server where I have stored my movie and music rips. Today I already contacted the ASUS support but got no answer till yet. Nevertheless when they confirm that I need a new motherboard, I will be prepared. I know that my familiy will make me crazy when it takes long to repair the htpc. I hope I didn't forget something. I'm looking forward for your suggestions. [/QUOTE]
