The only other desktop I have is an alienware. Considering that its still under warranty and it was a little pricey at the time I would rather not take the PS out of it to try it. Guess I'll head to the local store and pick up a new one and try that out tomorrow. Thanks for the help.

I built my first computer for my fiance about a year ago and up until now it has been running perfectly. Here are some of the specs: 2GB OCZ 800 mhz Ram Intel E6400 250 GB Western Digital HD P5NE-SLI Motherboard 320 mb 8800GTS Windows Vista I was in the middle of playing a game and...

I am using the WHQL drivers. 100.65 if I am not mistaken.

Does anyone have any ideas?

I recently assembled my first computer. I have posted in some of the other sections of the forums here and have yet to receive a solution to my problem so I decided to post here and see if someone might be able to help me. Here are the specs: P5N-E SLI E6400 Stock Zalman 9500 XClio...

I have an Alienware and as much as I have grown to love it I feel that I must caution you before you make this purchase. When I bought my computer in September I had no idea about other boutique builders and I wish that I had. Money wasn't an issue but I could have saved hundreds by going with...

I have this card as well however my gaming performance has been a little different. I built a new computer for my fiance and I picked this card to go in so that when dx10 games come out, at least I have a computer that I can play them on. First thing I installed was WoW. I set it to 1600x1200...

I have the new EVGA 8800 GTS 320mb superclocked video card that I put in my fiance's new computer. Earlier I had posted a thread concerning the fact that windows vista shows the card as having only 256mb of video memory. It was stated that this is a driver issue by someone on the forums...

When I go to the advanced settings tab in Vista it properly displays my card type, however it says that my total available graphics memory is 1023mb and dedicated video memory of 256mb. I am not sure if this is a driver issue or what. I downloaded the new drivers from nvidia today. I just...

Thanks for the information guys. Both of those programs seem to work but they are not properly recognizing my mobo. The computer I am working on is different from the one in my sig, its a new one I did for my fiance. Anyway these two programs don't tell me my videocard temps. Do you guys...

I just built a new computer yesterday and went with Vista for the OS. I tried finding a program that will allow me to monitor various component temps from within Vista but I haven't found anything yet. Do you guys know of any program that works? I have the new vista drivers from nvidia but...

Thanks for the advice enginurd. I have changed the case to the one you suggested but now I am going to get it in silver. Good catch on the ram, I overlooked it when I went through there the first time. One question I had was, what is the difference between the two drives? The reason I...

I am looking to build a PC for the first time. I already have a nice gaming rig, but my fiance needs a new desktop so I have decided to build it for her. I would appreciate it if you could look over the components I have selected and possibly make some suggestions. Trying to keep the price...

Thanks for the replies, Sorry for asking questions that have obvious answers but I am not very knowledgable in this area, hence the reason I decided to post here with the hopes of receiving some informed opinions. I know that SD will look worse on HD TV's but it does look better on certain...

Hey guys, Just had a couple of questions for you about the Westy. I want to order one and I had a few questions that I am hoping you can answer for me before I buy it. This will function mainly as a TV. I have an HD-DVR from the cable company however I still watch most of my TV in SD. My...
