PC won't boot past POST
Hi,
I've been having a sporadic problem with my new Intel D915PBL motherboard. Sometimes when I boot my computer, it won't go past POST. I have to sit and look at that stupid Intel integrity graphic. I've been able to get past the POST in these cases a couple of times, but then the computer boots very very slowly.
Well, today I was trying a couple of things. One thing I did was remove all my USB devices. As soon as the last device (MS Bluetooth dongle) was removed, the computer went right past POST and booted correctly.
So, it seems like having something in my USB is causing boot problems. It's really annoying, because I don't feel like having to unplug all my USB devices to get my computer to boot.
One other thing. I had a Belkin 4 port USB hub plugged into my computer. When I turned it on, all four of the USB lights that are usually green were yellow. Even the ones with nothing plugged into it.
Has anyone else seen this problem or found a solution to it?
Thanks
