I'm having very similar symptoms with my 5680. Booting into the Windows desktop kills it just about every time now.

My 5680 just started developing similar problems. The first occurence was two days ago from a cold boot, logging into XP Pro. As soon as I hit "enter" after typing my password, the screen turned off. I didn't hear the Windows...

Wow aegdaien, what a coincidence. I'm from Pennsylvania and went to GT too. Hehe, the cold was also a big reason that I decided on GT. I also got accepted to U Mich. There's good and bad things about Tech, but if you have a sense...

Using 3DMark03, it says that my RAM is clocked at 133.0 MHz. Can anyone confirm that other BIOS versions show the memory being clocked at 200.0 MHz? Does this mean that BIOS 1.00.07T3 is effectively giving me a 533MHz FSB instead of...
