I was wondering why I was clicking on a 3rd page and then next thing ya know only 2 pages were there...dang global mods....lol

Are you sure that you have the 6 pin inserted into the 4 pin connector properly. You'll need to find out which wire has the voltage needed...and which one on the motherboard needs that power. If jumping the power supply to turn on does not run the fan then your power supply is dead. Have you...

What type of router it is might help some of the others here.

Next to each? We know System Idle Process will be high as that is normal..which one has the 89 too 100% next to it under processes?There can never be a 100% next to one process then there also be another process with 100%. Out of all the processes..each one will add up to the complete CPU usage...

Resetting your router may help, but it sounds like either your wireless network adapter or your PC's network card..one of the 2 or both has been manually given an IP address. To check you can click on Control Panel, then go into 'Network and Internet', then under Network and Sharing Center click...

What is the maximum number next to those processes? & What does it say at the bottom of task manager right next to CPU usage?

DOH, gotchya.

OK, when you click on Processes in the task manager, there should be quite a few processes in there. Which one is fluctuating and has a high number next to it?

You may be missing the 4 pin plug that connects to a separate connector near the CPU. Do you have both the large connector and the 4 pin connector connected to the motherboard. Sometimes if you leave the 4 pin plug disconnected a system will come on for under a second and quickly shut back off...

But at the bottom of the task manager it is saying CPU usage 100%?

There is a chance that it could be the switch itself, BUT if you had a fan connected to the power supply and then shorted out the green wired pin with the black wired pin towards the middle of the connector, (I have tried shorting the green one with the black one towards the outside and it did...

Please tell us what process is using 49%-100%. It shouldn't be the Wmpnetwk.exe if you did what was stated above and disabled it.

Which leads us back to post #16. But I will update after I get it here on the 7th.

There ya go, I just never knew the exact way to put it. My bad for saying equal. I always heard that having a continuous air flow was good, but never had heard of the negative effect that you stated. That's good to know that it causes less dust though. Even though it probably wouldn't help in my...

Anytime I have spoken to someone at Microsoft they have been pretty decent, and as long as you explain the situation and let them know that the CD key is no longer used on any other system but the one that you are about to activate they will give you the information needed and if they don't...

Changing a router will not change your speed, unless you have gone into the settings and have choked down access for particular IP's that are connected to the router. What brand and model of router do you have and how old is it. If it was a cheap router it may not be able to handle the traffic...

I'm pretty sure they can tell when it was last reactivated and if it has been some time since last reactivation, they should be able to see that something might have gone wrong with the system. I've actually had to reactivate mine 3 times in the same week before, so I know it can be done. and...

Guys quit arguing over rather the key will work or not. I have my ways on that particular subject, which I will not talk about here. I'm not totally worried about that part. If it works, great..if it doesn't work..I guess I'm installing my 64 bit version and I'll be fine. The main reason this...

If someone would buy this for me I'd be willing to review it for them and let them know if they would want to get one for themselves or not.... hehe http://www.ebay.com/itm/2013-Best-Gaming-PC-SLINKY-SUPERCOMPUTER-Nvidia-GeForce-GTX-TITAN-Quad-SLI-/300905943892?pt=Desktop_PCs&hash=item460f645354

According to a few people I've spoken with, they say that if I were to use the same chipset and CPU in a different motherboard that it tricks windows into thinking it's just the same motherboard. I'm not going to have the same chipset so it may throw it off. Now will windows pop up and say...
