Re: EP45-UD3P hangs at post with Q9650 but works with Q6600

Did you try PS/2 Mouse and Keyboard, or just PS/2 keyboard? Just checking as this is very odd for sure
I do not think the BIOS is corrupted at all since the Q6600 works fine in it, but I am stumped as to what the issue could be now that you have answered a few things for me. You are setting your own ram settings manually correct? Like Performance Enhance standard, Ram voltage, tRD (Static tRead Value) to 8-10, and MCH 1.20-1.24? If not it could be your ram is not setup properly per the new CPU and that is why it posts but fails to go past the post screens.
I would try once more with the Q6600 in and set these settings and save and apply/reboot to windows (To be sure the overclock works good enough to get ya there) and then shut down and try the new CPU. 45nm to 65nm move and 266 to 333 FSB move is going to require the strap to change in the NB and this may not be happening properly. It should be though with a clear CMOS but like you said you cannot load optimized so you may not be getting the change done yet. >>>

On the good side, you have Newegg RMA So that should go over pretty easy for you. Good luck, and hope your replacement fires right up! Do not put the Q6600 in it first so if the above is the case you do not run into the same issue
