    Serious Problems: Please, Really Need Help

    Yeah, I know, but it never worked in the past. Going to try to who UBCD thing in a few minutes and test whatever I can. P.S. PSU is blowing very hot air, despite the side of my case having been off all day... very hot.

    Serious Problems: Please, Really Need Help

    Using Riva Tuner for card temps, but that's it. Cannot find anything else. MBM is years out of date and basically useless, and I know of nothing else. Yeah, the event viewer gives a lot of what I already posted... the strange dump-type errors, and the other long one I listed (in italics)...

    Serious Problems: Please, Really Need Help

    I appreciate the responses, and yes, this is to the point of extremely stressful and upsetting. There really is no one else for me to speak with, and I've gotten so many different types of errors with so many different types of "symptoms", there's just no way for me to narrow this down. Like...

    Serious Problems: Please, Really Need Help

    I'm still getting sysdata.xml/mini.dmp errors which, from everything I've been told (days and days of research) is driver-related... and something about deleting some Temp folder (I forget which one.. damn!) then rebooting Windows, and that can fix it. I would run memtest, but I've never been...

    Serious Problems: Please, Really Need Help

    Not sure where else to post this, as there is not "General Problems" area, so I hope here is ok. Hey all, I'll try to make this short and easy to follow. I'm having SERIOUS problems now that are basically turning my new system into a $2k paperweight so I REALLY need you help. Here we...

    x1900xtx - a few questions

    Hey all, A few quick questions I could use some help with, for those who know: 1) Where exactly in the ATI Control Center do you find the temp monitoring? I've heard it mentioned that it's in there, but I've dug through the entire thing and cant find any core temp monitoring section...

    Zalman CNPS9500 vs. Scythe Ninja Plus

    Ok folks, have to make a decision here and not sure what to do where a new CPU cooler is concerned. I just purchased the Scythe Ninja Plus, however, I didn't realize that the Ninja comes with an adhesive to be applied to the back of the mobo. Some say that ASUS boards have brackets on the...

    X1900XTX Core/Mem Clocks?

    I'm having trouble understanding something with the clock speeds on my card (MSI Radeon). With my specific card, the Core/Mem clocks are stated as being 625/1550, respectively. However, the monitoring program RivaTuner is reading both of these clocks far below (something like 475/750)...

    Need Help: Clock Speeds, Drivers & CCC

    Just a few issues, for all you genius people who've helped me out so well thus far ;) 1) I'm using RivaTuner (as suggested here) to keep track of my card temps etc. However, it's reading my mem clock way lower than what this card is shipped with (MSI Radeon X1900XTX) which is something in...

    Need Quiet/Effective Cooler Replacement - Suggestions?

    I'm running a P4 3.6GHz CPU on a "tight-fit" ASUS P5N32-SLI Deluxe board (socket LGA 775) fanless design. Replaced the stock Intel cooler (loud as hell) with an Evercool that is almost just as loud. While it works great, especially with Arctic Silver 5, it's just too loud... plus I just had...

    Card Temp Cause Lag/Crashing/Rebooting? Need Advice a.s.a.p.

    p.s. Both Riva and ATI CCC are reading the wrong mem clock for this card. It's showing just over 500, and this MSI card it should be clocked at 1500+ out of the box. Is it just the programs? Or is something up? Or does it pick up on what the card "should" be "stock" or maybe I'm just not...

    Card Temp Cause Lag/Crashing/Rebooting? Need Advice a.s.a.p.

    *sigh* Alright guys, you've helped me out great thus far, so let's see if someone can help me with this. Just installed the Zalman VF900 on my X1900XTX and installed RivaTuner to monitor card temp. Tried running both F.E.A.R. and BF2... system rebooted twice with both. Removed case...

    Non-Error Crashing: Due To Heat? (Also Modding w/ Fans)

    Thanks for the welcome :) ...and the advice. Can't seem to find any temp monitor through the CCC, though I never liked that thing... always prefered the CP. Heh. Maybe I'll give that other program a try, so thanks for the heads-up :) How about this: the TriMaxx case, which has six 80mm...

    Non-Error Crashing: Due To Heat? (Also Modding w/ Fans)

    Wow, thanks for all the responses. It seems unanimous that it's my GPU overheating, and I do have a Zalman vf900 coming in the next day or two, so I can always mount it on (and hope I don't mess it up... haha) and hope for the best. Yeah, this case is great, except for the airflow...

    Non-Error Crashing: Due To Heat? (Also Modding w/ Fans)

    Ok, now I just got done playing BF2 with side of case off and no crashing. Temps around the same, but a bit lower (CPU 30-32C, mobo 38-41C)... so is this indeed heat-related? Would modding my case to add those extra fans be enough to do the trick? Thanks.
