hey guys... i've tried everything that's been suggested and i still can't get my copy to work. Whenever I use the benchmark tool, however, I do get an image...but as you can see, it's all fucked up :(

i don't have time to run memtest for 6 hours.....i need it for school :(

The data lifeguard tools doesn't have any diagnostic test...unless I downloaded the wrong one EDIT: I downloaded the WD diagnostic tool and my hard drives didn't even show up on the list...O.o

yea its dusty now, but i've cleaned it several times (most recently about a month ago)....and it still would freeze and restart on me

not recently, but I ran it when I first built my computer and everything was fine. I haven't changed any hardware since I first got it

bump....is this even in the right section or do you need more info or what?

ok.....i'm running everything at stock speeds, and i recently reformatted my computer. I was getting random restarts and lockups during games before i reformatted, and i's still happening what could the problem be? i have all the latest drivers for everything...i'm stumped:confused:

alright i'm not sure if my hard drive is skipping or what, but randomly when I am switching in between windows or opening a file/program my computer will freeze up and I won't be able to do anything for a few seconds. While this is happening I hear my hard drive starting to spin up, which leads...

What would you guys suggest for a good fan controler? I'd prefer black. Price isn't that much of an issue as long as it is reasonable....which is prety much anything under $100 I would also prefer that it looks cool. Like this: http://www.xoxide.com/aerocool-coolwatch-black.html Thanks...

Looks good so far! Where did you get those UV fans? I've been looking for some for my case and I haven't found any decent ones yet :(

You know....Heat rises :rolleyes:

What would you use your computer for if you were to get a desktop? Also, why go midrange on the gfx card? I have heard that DX10 is 1 year+ away. If he is gonna be gaming, I don't see why...

If you are building a gaming rig, don't even consider Intel. AMD is practically made for gaming.

And then drop out once you have 5 copies of each :D

Oh wow. I am having almost an identical problem with my DFI UT CFX3200. I have had pretty much all the exact same problems you have had, except mine weren't caused by fooling around with vista. I am ending up RMAing both my CPU and mobo because I can't tell which one isn't working. I would...

You really don't need an upgrade on either part in my opinion. I have the 2007FPW and it is great. I also have computer specs very close to yours and it is great as well. It sounds to me like you have money burning a hole in your pocket. EDIT: if you do upgrade at all...get the DFI CFX3200 and...

... The thing won't even post now. I tried using 1 stick of RAM- nothing. I tried only plugging in the power connections on the mobo- nothing. I have reset CMOS and I get nothing. I took out the battery for 5 min and replaced it- still get nothing. I have no idea what it could possibly be...

G15.

Get the NEC DVD drive. That will save you $10 :rolleyes:

Only CPU. I tried to keep the RAM at 200mHz. It ended up being around 204 with a 5/6 fsb ratio.

Yea, everything is workin. Fans spin. UV lights are on. I even think the Hard Drive is spinning as well. The RAID problem was actually happening before it stopped posting. I updated windows and it stopped working after that (I think there was an update for the RAID driver, but I don't know...

I'd definitely go with a new gfx card. Go with a 7900GT if you aren't going SLi. Another gig wouldn't hurt ;)

Before I list my problems, I have to say that this is my first build. Therefore, I am not the most knowledgable person. My spec's are in my signature... Alright...First problem- No post. Everything was working just fine last night, but when I turned on my computer this morning, I got nothing...

You can get the VX2025wm for $280 with rebate... http://www.jr.com/JRProductPage.process?Product=4090201

Also, I have a Radeon 9200 PCI card. I want to get a new computer soon if I get the money. I don't know if my card supports the suggested res or not. Another thing- I mostly play CS:S. Don't know if this restricts my choices or anything...

I'm not sure if they ship to Canada, but here is the same monitor for $279 USD. http://www.jr.com/JRProductPage.process?Product=4090201

I've seen quite a few positive reviews on the Dell 2005FPW, the 2007WFP and the ViewSonic VX2025WM. I was wondering which I should get. The ViewSonic is the cheapest and I have seen a bunch of positive reviews, but the Dell's look nice and I have also heard good reviews on them as well. I will...
