    i5 2310 not working with 2 or all cores

    Can anyone give advice as to the faulty component Board or chip?

    Have a new bare bones system im building for a client but the PC will only run on 1 core or 3 cores?

    anything else and the system freezes in BIOS, and if it gets past BIOS will restart system after getting to the point where windows starts animation at start up.

    Im not sure what the is the faulty component

    The system was fine at first as I was in OOBE adding oem info and latest windows updates then the system just restarted and problems since then. Its the first time i have seen this fault specificly with cores.

    memtest shows memory is fine
    latest bios updates applied to board
    i5 processor reseated and all cables are fine
    changed memory config on board to every combination thinkable single sticks and both sticks.
    Also tried swapping PSU same results

    its a puzzle to me and would like to know if anyone else has had the problem and resolved it.

      You have a hardware issue. I would suspect board first, but could be the actual CPU.

            I would have guessed MB! Which is why i don't like to guess.
