    Can't even make it to the BSOD this time...

    okay...i have a water-cooled PC, and my pump is a piece, and it was very loud...so I got the bright idea to jiggle it while my pc was on. yeah...moment of brilliance. Anyway, i bumped something, and i'm pretty sure it was my video card but i couldn't see cause it was dark in the room, but my...

    Motherboard Woes

    Okay, I bought myself an ASUS A8R-MVP and have been having problems since I've started overclocking. First, I can't figure out how to change my divider, I have no idea, and have since assumed that this is unchangeable, currently my expensive ddr-500 modules are running at ddr-266, which is a big...

    Huge Case??

    I've been doing some looking around, and on Ebay there are a lot of InWin Q500's. It doesn't seem to be too terrible of a case, and I think I might look to get one on monday. It looks like it has a lot of room above the psu where I can install a radiator blowhole in the top of the case. Any...

    Huge Case??

    Thanks so much for all of the help so far guys! I am moreso looking for a cheap case here, one that I can not really worry about too much if i mess up one of my mods, the 200 dollar cases are nice, but i would rather put the extra money into other components, the max i'd probably like to pay is...

    Huge Case??

    I have finally decided to take a plunge into water cooling. I want to use a double or triple fan radiator or heater core and I need to find a new case that is big enough to accommodate this. I am looking to probably mod the case, so some really nice and expensive case is not a necessity. I am...

    Fried Hard Drives??

    okay, so installing a fresh install of windows on a new hard drive worked like a charm. The other old hard drive booted fine as a slave too. My problem is that I need a way to transfer all of the programs and stuff that i was using on my old hard drive onto the new one. Does anyone know of a way...

    Fried Hard Drives??

    well, i guess i could attempt a reformat....nothing that'll kill me to lose, but i'd highly prefer to not lose it all... its late right now...tomorrow, i'll try to put in a different hard drive, and reformat it and see if i can get the hard drive to run as a slave after that and then transfer...

    Fried Hard Drives??

    yes. I put the old hard drive in with the old components and verified that it still worked. With this setup, I tried my best to uninstall the drivers associated with the old components. I then installed the new components with the old hard drive. I got a BSOD. I put my new windows in and did a...

    Fried Hard Drives??

    okay, i already ordered a new PSU, but anyway, i decided to take the time to put the old mobo, processor, and gpu in and fire 'er up. Just as you guys predicted, it worked. I tried to uninstall the old mobo drivers in device manager, but my attempts were proven fruitless when i got another bsod...

    Fried Hard Drives??

    bios detected it fine, every time it goes to windows though it goes to the bsod as soon as it gets to that XP screen with the loading bar. the exact same thing happened when i tried it in another computer

    Fried Hard Drives??

    I recently installed a new mobo/cpu/gpu and my computer gave me a BSOD. After scratching my head for about a day or two, i decided that it seemed like it was the hard drive that wasn't working. sure enough, it didn't work when i tried the hd out in another computer. This is the second hard drive...

    Mucho Problemos

    OK, i did a little homework on this one. The message said stuff about my hard drive, so i figured i better look into that. I tried the hard drive in another computer and i got the bsod again. This is not the first hard drive that I have had problems with while using this power supply. Does...
