    Problem driving me insane. Could a power button do this?

    argh. will try with it's original memory I had for that board. I do have the specific 1.8 for that, but it's only 2 x 1GB sticks booted up with OK now. I wonder if the Gigabyte was struggling with the 1.9 OCZ stuf all along. But even when I had the PS hookd to that, it woud constantly flick on...

    sorry didn't make that clear enough in the first post, "cheap mini intel atx board" is the line I used ;) and yes this is what makes it freakin' weird! The intel board is: http://www.intel.com/p/en_US/support/highlights/dsktpboards/d945gcnl

    hm the intel board only has 2 slots - maybe i'll go back to Gigabyte and try that. I know I tried 12 ways to sunday, but perhaps I overlooked the 1/3 setup?

    Computer goes into 5-second reboot cycle after sleep mode

    I'm having this same problem, started talking about it here: http://hardforum.com/showthread.php?t=1651599 You laugh at haunted room but I feel like it. Mine does the same thing, will shut down and I can't turn it on. Randomly it comes back to life.

    damn that's all I have is the 1.9 stuff, I have the non gold OCZ (1GB sticks) but are rated for 1.9 as well. Noticed that the intel board booted right up on 1 stick of the 2GB however you need both sticks in correct?

    Sorry forgot to include that, on the sticker it says 1.9 not sure if that matters. On the Gigabyte board I did a software reset by going into the bios but did not do that on the intel. Would a hard reset be removing the battery?

    Glad you asked that. Yes I did on the Gigabyte and still happened. I've been running this intel board for 48 hours, playing MWF3 no issues. I just went to upgrade the bios, clicked the download on intel's site - boom it shut off and now I cant turn it back on.

    I have a Gigabyte GA-EP43 mobo with a quad core 2 ghz chip 4gb of OCZ DDR RAM and a 9800GT XFX video card. They were being powered by an Antec 600W blue series PS. Randomly the system would reboot. I did the typical reseat, blwo out dust time and time again. Re installed OS time and time...

    Guestimate the bottleneck

    I'm upgrading a mail system that currently runs on an old dell 2450 with u320 scsi drives. I plan on clustering two webmail front ends and running the mysql and nfs mount on a seperate server. So I'm trying to foresee where the bottleneck would be in performance. Do i spring for 15k drives on...
