So erm, I've only said once before but I recently built a new pc. Nice one too :D Happy with it, almost.
It's worked fine for a few weeks, but today when I turned it on. It loaded the P5K (motherboard) splash screen. But didn't move, there is the option of pressing Del for the BIOS options, and Tab to see the POST message. Neither worked. It just... froze. I tried restarting over and over, nothing. So I left it, suddenly it said something about there being no boot medium, so I figured... Loose connection to the drive, I restarted again. It loaded fine.
It's been working since then, but to be sure, I changed the SATA wire, and the port it was in. But that doesn't explain it freezing at the motherboard splash and it still worries me as I spent roughly £900 on the PC.
Was just wondering if anyone could give me some information behind the issue, of what could've caused it and if I should take action.
