Sorry to keep bumping this topic up, but I just ran into something odd. I was loading more than a few mp3s from an external USB hard drive up in foobar2k when my computer froze. Same blank screen, no video input, hard reset required. This is the first time that has happened outside of a game...

Hm, I definitely didn't skimp on the PSU; it cost a fair amount and by all accounts I read that corsair make at the very least decent units. Anyhow I disconnected the two PATA drives from it. So the PSU was only powering a low-end video card, two sata things, an underclocked low-end CPU...

So after five hours of ATITool+p95 testing with no erratic temperatures or errors I thought it might've fixed itself somehow. I started up a game and it still died within ten minutes. It's handled every test I've thrown at it perfectly. Could it be a directx issue? I'm not running SP1, could...

I'm not sure if it helps you at all, but I just got the DS3L, almost the same motherboard as the one you're looking at but missing hardware raid. With the included realtek sound drivers there are a few different environment mode type things. About six or so including stadium mode, brick room...

Yet another strange development. I changed the cable to the video card's other DVI port, and cycled the power to the monitor. One of these things fixed something, because it then got signal (main screen turn on). I ran ATI's artifact test for an hour with no errors, GPU temperature seemed to...

Well this is an interesting development. I alt+ctrl+del'd my pc as it was starting up because I forgot to hit the boot menu key, and as it restarted there was no signal on the monitor at all. Apparently though I can blindly login to windows, and shut it down, and it makes the corresponding...

I've run into a problem I can't fix, so I've had to exit from lurk mode. My computer booted fine once all together, but it seems to freeze after I've been playing any game for a bit. The monitor goes black, eventually shows that there's no input, and the sound loops. I'm pretty sure the HDD...
