I can not boot my system and the post code I get 7F. I looked in the manual and that code is (Check POST error and display them and ask for user intervention) witch I don't know what that means. I looked up some info on it and there was some thing about checking the memory. I did and still can't get to boot up. The one thing I added to my system was a new GTX 295. The 2 VC have a green light on the back plate as far I know that means that they are working good. At this point I don't know what to do or check now. If some one know or has had this can you please help.

Have you tried clearing your CMOS? When you added the new video card, did you uninstall the old drivers using Driver Sweeper in safe mode, then install the new drivers?

I would reseat the video card, and double check all of my connections to include ensuring the memory is fully seated.

OK I did all that, What dose the code 7F mean? I have replaced the memory and checked all the connections. I have a spear VC I have placed to see if that was it and not thing. It just driving me crazy.

7F is normally a hardware related issue. You say that when you put your old video card back in, it still came up 7F? Did you also have a long beep? Try to boot with just the minimum, one video card, OS hard drive only, one stick of RAM in the first slot (closest to the CPU). Make sure your 8 pin power connector is fully seated.

I thought about that, but he was running the RAM fine until he installed the new video card....but it is still a possibility. @ the OP - if the above did not work try this: 1. Unplug your PSU. 2. Press and hold the start button for 10 seconds. 3. Remove the MB battery for 10 minutes. 4. Reinsert the MB battery. 5. Clear your CMOS. 6. Plug the PSU back in. 7. Boot into your BIOS and load default settings. Manually set you memory timings and voltage, save changes and exit your BIOS.

His OP states; "The one thing I added to my system was a new GTX 295." I am wondering if it was a brand new card in the manufacturers sealed box or if it was a previously used card that could be defective.

Ok...before you installed the new 295 card....had you created and are now running on a RAID...like you were asking about in previous thread or are you still on a single drive? I'm just double-checking.

The way you wrote that is kinda confusing.
So, yes...your OpSys is still on the single drive but, there are now 2 new HD's installed to setup your RAID on...is that correct??
You said in your OP that the only thing newly added was the GFX card.

OK...disconnect the power and interface cables from the new drives and see if you can then boot to Windows. Also, you do not have to keep leaving this page after every post you make...stay here and just hit the refresh page button every couple of minutes to see the new messages.

One short beep soon after you power on is a good thing....that means that your RAM has passed a short BIOS Memory test. Right after you hear the beep you should see something on your screen....either LOGO picture or DOS information.

OK.....as soon as you hear the beep...start hitting the Delete key rapidly and see if it will get you into the BIOS.
