crashing randomly, and now it won't even POST. I can turn it on, and all the lights, fan, hard drives spin up, but my msi motherboard error codes screen remains blank and I don't hear the POST beep. I have an EVGA 680i SLI motherboard, and the onboard LCD error code screen reads 25, which, according to the user's manual, is something to do with the Shadow post error codes System/Video BIOS. I tried resetting the CMOS, but to no avail. I have also removed all USB inputs. Before I start stripping everything down, I was hoping someone could provide me with more information on what that specific error code pertains to, and hopefully any suggestions of what I might do to fix it. My system specs are as follows: EVGA Nvidia Nforce 680i SLI Motherboard Intel Q6600 Processor (stock speed) 8 Gb OCZ SLI-Ready DDR2 680W Sunbeam HUSH PSU HIS Radeon 5770 Graphics Card (connected to monitor via HDMI output) 500 Gb WD Caviar Blue Primary Hard Drive (Recently bought ~2 months ago) Windows 7 Ultimate 64 bit OS Thanks in advance for looking at this...

Long time no post but have a small ?? to ask. Does anyone know the exact error that's happening when faced with error code 25 on BOOT ?? Seems a lot of our users with EpoX boards and new gen Sapphire/ATI cards are getting stuck on Code25 after installing their cards. http://www.tomshardware.com/forum/290351-30-evga-680i-post-error-code I mod the Sapphire VGA card forum and get asked a lot about this as I'm one of the only EpoX users there. Anyone know the exact error that's occuring ?? Manual says "Reserved" and that's as much use to me as a chocolate teapot !! ET, can you shed some light on this maybe ??

Check the keyboard controller or clock generator if a failure occurs Initialize Chipsets Check the BIOS, CLOCK and chipsets Reset Determination The BIOS reads the bits in the keyboard controller to see if a hard or soft reset is required (a soft reset will not test memory above 64K). Failure could be the BIOS or keyboard controller ROM BIOS Checksum The BIOS performs a checksum on itself and adds a preset factory value that should make it post card error equal to 00. If a failure occurs, check the BIOS chips Keyboard Test A command is sent to the 8042 keyboard controller which performs a test and sets a buffer space for commands. After the buffer is defined the BIOS sends a command byte, writes data to the buffer, checks the high order bits of the internal keyboard controller and issues a No Operation (NOP) command CMOS Shutdown byte in CMOS RAM offset 0F is tested, the BIOS checksum calculated and diagnostic byte 0E updated before the CMOS RAM area is initialized and updated for date and time. Check the RTC and CMOS chip or battery if a failure occurs DMA (8237) and PIC (8259) Disable The DMA and Programmable Interrupt Controller are disabled before the POST proceeds and further. Check the 8237 or 8259 chips if a failure occurs Video Disable The video controller is disabled and port B initialized. Check the video adapter if a failure occurs Chipset Initialized and Memory Detected Memory addressed in 64K blocks. Failure would be in the chipset. If all memory is not seen, failure could be in a chip in the block after the last one seen PIT Test The timing functions of the 8254 Programmable Interrupt Timer are tested.

My PCI post card stops code 25.
