Hi. i'm looking at a new mobo. I don't know much about chipsets. or Brand names. I'm looking at 3 mobos. http://www.newegg.ca/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813131329 http://www.newegg.ca/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813128359...

my msi just pooped out on me lol

I just checked the warranty and it was just gone 3 months ago... i guess MSI timed it perfectly haha. I have yet to find a place that still sells socket 939 mobos. Maybe tiger direct would have some old stock; i'll go check it out. Anyways, i just wanted to thank everyone once again on...

I moved the hard drive over to another computer and scanned it and have no problems. What i just discovered is that there's some "crap" on 3 of the capacitors (mini cylinder blocks... i think i got the term right) on the motherboard. It looks like something was leaking. Does that explain...

Well, actually i didn't do extensive trials... it would just turn off like before. It happened twice and then i was just like "sighhh... good game" and then i put the old psu back in. lol. are there anything else that i should still try? It doesn't seem like a software problem if it has...

Thanks for everyone's input. the 380s actually has 24A on the 12v+ rail. The 9600gt requires 26A, but the computer was actually working for the longest time. Anyways... Well, I picked up an OCZ ModXStream 600W today. I plugged it in, and sad to say, the problem was still there. Is it now...

the antec is the 380w that came with the original sonata. something like 380s or something like that. i just tried the battery and no luck. i guess i'll be buying a new psu.

yea. the psu came with the case so that might be the problem. Tho i always assumed that it would be a decent piece since it's made by antec, but i guess not. Hugh9191, I've tested the ram with memtest more than once, and there were no problems found. I've switched out the ram and put in new...

i really hope its that battery problem then. Fingers crossed. i would be so happy lol.

hey. thanks for the help so far. I will try the battery before i buy a new psu. as far as i know, the cpu runs cool, the video card is pretty new and the hard drive was installed just last month. I've felt these components with my hand and they felt like normal temperatures. i'm not quite...

unfortunately, i don't have another psu to try with the system. PC eye, i tried your method and it has started up again. However, when it does boot up again, windows tells me i had an unexpected shut down and windows has problem starting up again and suggests that i repair it with the vista...

hello all. recently, when I leave my computer on and go out, i come back and the computer's off. then, when i try to turn it on, the power button doesn't respond. So, I turn the power switch off on the psu, wait a bit, and turn it back on, and the computer would turn on. Yesterday, i had...

Hello My computer has been constantly crashing lately and i believe its a hard drive problem... *fingers crossed* so i decided to buy a new hard drive. I remember my mother board only supported SATA but there doesn't seem to be many in the market anymore. Anyone know if my computer...

Hi, thanks for the replies. I just got a new graphics card and tried the game again, but the problem is still there. i realize that if i restart the computer, the framerates would be ok, but after a while of playing, the framerates slow down. i checked and nothing is draining the cpu or ram...

So i've started playing this mmorpg and sometimes the framerates are stable at around 25fps. So its decent for smoothness. but sometimes it'll be fluctuating from 5fps to 35fps and that won't be playable. I've checked the videocard temperatures and cpu temperatures when it fluctuates, but...

:P yea that :)

i was thinking that the image stabilizer feature would be good on the olympus? ever tested that out?

suggestions?

the core went to 66C i think the second i took the screenshot it already went down 10C. It seemed high. What should the safe range be for the cpu and the core?

lol, you mean temp3 yea. i think its an error. it went berzerk after the stress test, but its usually around 15-25C any idea what that is actually?
