I let memtest86+ run 9 passes and received 0 errors. Ill pay attention to my idle/load temps an get back to you. Everything is in an Antec twelve hundred with all fans on high and a zalman cpu cooler, so i don't think overheating is a problem. No, I have not installed any new hardware or...

Okay, so all the timings are set correctly and memtest has been through 2 passes without a error. Does anyone have any other ideas on what the problems could be?

I originally had OCZ Gold 6gb triple channel set and RMA'd that and then still had the problem so i bought Corsair Dominator TR3x6G1600C8D. http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820145224 Yes, i have manually set the RAM timings and voltage. What is the best boot up RAM...

My computer is about 7 months old. It has started crashing about 30 seconds after start up and giving me the BSOD. I am running Windows 7 64-bit and the error code is STOP: 0x0000007F (0x0000000000000008, 0x0000000080050033, 0x00000000000006F8, 0xFFFFF80002CDF591). I figured that it was...

Whats is the best software for keeping an eye on my CPU and VGA temps? Windows 7, core i7, evga gtx 275

Ok, Thanks. I had just never had a difference as large as 69gb before, but my biggest hd before this one was 250.

Hey, i just built a new system and it is only recognizing my HD as being 931GB. Is this normal, or is it possible that i got a defective hard drive and am going to continue getting more and more bad sectors? I really dont want to install everything and then have to RMA it later and reinstall...

I got it. I just let it sitting there since i originally posted and it finally came up. Thanks for the help. I have never had to wait before but then again i also have always just reformatted drives and never installed on a brand new system.

like 5 minutes. Should i have waited longer with a new system?

Ok, so i just built a new computer and it boots up fine and will go to the bios and allows me to change everything there. When i go to install an os it says windows is loading files and that goes fine. Then it will come up with main screen after that and there is a mouse icon that will move...

An Antec twelve hundred plus an antec cp-850 is always an option too. The cp-850 will only fit the antec twelve hundred, p183, and p-193 so dont buy it with any other case. http://www.provantage.com/antec-twelve-hundred~7ANTG051.htm and http://www.provantage.com/antec-cp-850~7ANTS039.htm or...

I just got a dell s2209w for $179 shipped. It is 1080p and for the price it is absolutely amazing. The picture is crisp and vibrant. I also have a friend that has 2408wfp and it is also a very nice monitor. I dont think that the quality difference justifies the extra $300. There is also the...

Will that case keep everything running cool? I know the system wont be under load so it shouldn't get overly hot, but my dad also wont check the temps every once in awhile to make sure they are ok.

That looks good. It really just needs to do the basic things and last 2 or 3 years.
