Hey All, I just purchaced a non working GA-7N400 Pro 2 MB from ebay. I installed known working components after clearing the BIOS and removing the battery overnight and booted with a PCI Post Mortem card in the bottom PCI slot. It comes up with the error code of F5 which I have researched to mean "Clear Huge Segment". Any one know what this means and how to remeady it. SargeŽ Member IPL, VAC, RCAA PGP Key 0x59DDC455 My understanding, such as it is, is that "Clear Huge Segment" is not an error. It is a standard boot/POST operation which is presumably the last completed operation/code before you are getting a hang on something else. Stick some RAM and a CPU on it and try to get further? -- Using Opera's revolutionary e-mail client: http://www.opera.com/mail/ --- avast! Antivirus: Outbound message clean.

Did that too and still nothing. Too bad these boards didnt come with socketed BIOS chips. SargeŽ Member IPL, VAC, RCAA PGP Key 0x59DDC455 Hmmm. I posted two different replies by mistake but neither was any good. I'd suggest that there are service agents who can replace a soldered BIOS at a reasonable rate but maybe you need to ask Gigabyte directly for an opinion about a board that stops after or during Clear Huge Segment! Oh, what am I saying? Gigabyte never answer queries do they?! -- Using Opera's revolutionary e-mail client: http://www.opera.com/mail/ --- avast! Antivirus: Outbound message clean.
