Nope.. still hanging.. removed the GTX980Ti and installed a Radeon HD7970.

Researching about the symptoms I found some people had hang issues when PCI Express Power Management was activated in Windows.

Google what the graphics driver is behaving. It could be simply the graphics driver. Sure beginning to appear as such to me anyways.

Download a different driver revision and retry. I know, PITA. But there are always that one revision that others post of that simply refuses to cooperate with a card or three.



While you do that, give me the mem Kit's full part/model number and I'll rut around with that and see what I can unearth from here.

Then came a random reset. Windows load again, Windows Update tried to install the driver again and again a reset. This goes on and on until I disable the Windows Update service.  Downloaded the last driver from NVidia site, used the installer and in the middle of the installation, another reset. Removed the VGA and started using onboard gpu. Windows looks fine now but, if I turn off the PC, when I try to turn it on, Asrock give me 00 on Dr Debug. After a lot of attempt to turn it on, the mobo restore the Bios A from Bios B and turn it on. But every time I turn it off, mobo give 00.  Notice that if I disconnect the PC from energy for a couple of minutes, it turn it on normally. Any sugestions? Everything is default on BIOS. No overclock at all. Thanks in advance.

The driver update "feature" of Windows 10 update is terrible, I disable that during the Windows 10 installation configuration step that happens after the restart. Never use the Express installation configuration settings.

I do not connect the network cable during a Windows 10 installation, and don't connect it until I install all the drivers first, including the video drivers.

Did you install any of the basic Intel software and drivers yourself? Such as the chipset/INF files, and the Intel Management Engine software? Both are essential for an Intel mother board.

When the Nvidia video driver is installed manually, when it is complete it requests a restart of the PC. So the "random reset" you said happens, might (should) be Windows 10 restarting the PC after the driver installation, in a very unfriendly way for the user. That is, unless the video driver installation fails, and keeps failing. Or if the restart for the driver installation is ignored by Windows 10, you use the driver without a restart, with who knows what result. I have an Nvidia type GPU, and install its driver myself. Never any problems on my ASRock Z270 GK6 board.

Have you asked about this issue with Windows 10 in the Microsoft forum?

You then changed to the Intel iGPU. Did you install the Intel VGA driver?

When you say you "turn off" the PC, what does that mean? A Windows shutdown? If so, do you leave the PSU power on?

POST code 00 means a dead CPU, or that is displayed if no power is supplied to the CPU, as if the 4/8 pin CPU power cable was not connected. If you remove power from the PSU, and then apply it again, the CPU works, meaning it gets power from the PSU.

Have you ever used the PSU in another PC? Is it new for this PC?
