'Situations with the electricity' are notorious for corrupting the CMOS settings including some that are not accessible from the BIOS setup menu. Before anything else I would try a CMOS reset followed by optimised defaults, followed by any adjustments that you made when you originally installed the OS.

Thanks P1GRIM
i have done that... no changes the system is not as normal anymore. i realised i spend too much time trying to fix this rather than actually making music. so thats why i am opting for totally building something new BUT the concern is being Able To RUN OSx 10.6.8. You get me ??

Current new hardware will not run Snow Leopard as the OS has no support for it. To run Snow Leopard, you need to find older hardware of the Sandy Bridge generation (like what you have) or earlier. In your situation what you probably need is another similar motherboard, which can only be obtained second hand.
