Greetings!
Tried clearing BIOS?
Shutdown computer, look for CMOS jumper on the MB, take it out for some minutes, put it back and try again. |

List your system pieces (CPU, PSU, RAM, video card, etc).

How old is the motherboard? |

Whats the exact model of the motherboard? Should be printed on the PCB.

So, the system was perfectly stable prior to the "Load Fail Safe"? The BIOS setting shouldnt have an effect on the files. Unless you were using an unstable configuration.
Are you up to date in drivers? Chipset, sound, video, etc? |
