What is Intel C-STATE tech under the CPU tab in the BIOS? I can see that option in my manual, but I can't find it in the BIOS. I have the P5Q Pro mobo with BIOS 1406. Did ASUS take that option out for that BIOS rev?

I have just tried it with a different outlet and power cable..still no go. And as for the power supply needing 850watts+, I don't think that's the case...because I ran through one of those power consumption tests from Antec, and 600+ would be plenty for my system. Also, I decided to yank...

Okay..so a little update...I have tried it with a new video card, and the random restarts still occur. Yesterday, I borrowed my friend's working crosair memory, and still it randomly restarts itself. So...as of now, I have exhausted a lot of the parts that could cause the problem. Here is what I...

I haven't solve the problem yet..have been ridiculously busy with school till this past week. I have gotten a new power supply and tried it out 2 days ago. It still does the same thing...restarting at random intervals. I tried to run Prime95, but it would die after 7-8hrs..and would start...

Thanks for the reply, I was thinking of the same thing. I have an old no brand P4 power supply that I know works. But on the motherboard there is a 6 port power plug (like a graphic card power plug), rather than the original P4 4 port plug. My question is would it be able to power up with only...

RAM : OCZ2G8004GK 4GB CPU : Q6600 (2.4 Ghz) Stock HSF, no overclocking Motherboard : ASUS P5Q Pro Video card : ATI AIW X1900 Power Supply : Antec Earthwatt 600w I had another thread in this forum, but I can't seem to locate it. Sorry if I placed it too many times. My computer has the...

Ok, I have tried resetting the CMOS using this method and it was a no go. I managed to get into once and I managed to update the Bios, but that still didn't fix the issue. Also I have played around reseating the ram at different dimms. Still stuck on the random reboots. Are there any other...

I am not able to get to the Windows XP boot screen at all. So, there is no F8 to be pushed, it would just restart right before it loads the IDE stuff.

My newly built system (probably 2 weeks old) is stuck in a infinite reboot loop. I ran prime95 and memtest86 when I first built it, and everything ran fine for 12hrs. Until yesterday the computer began to restart itself randomly. I have not installed anything new, or do I try to overclock it, so...

I just built a new rig and my Q6600 G0 stepping was sitting at 38, 37, 30, 33. Then I tried reseating the heatsink and applied Arctic MX-2 on there and now is idling at around 36, 35, 27, 33 with stock cooling. I heard that the hottest and coolest temps shouldn't have a difference of more than...

I have been out of this computer building scene for a while now. I was wondering if anyone could help and see if this configuration would work for a desktop computer. I am planning to use the following parts: 1) Mobo: Asus P5K-E 2) Mem: 2Gigs DDR2 5300 667mhz (have some of those lying...

Anyone!?!?

I currently own a Toshiba A100-JH2 laptop; less than a year old. Whenever I don't use it for a while, the screen saver comes on and then it will change into the black screen (kinda like if its put to sleep). When I try touch the mouse pad or hit keys on the keyboard, the screen doesn't seem to...
