    PC powering off spontaneously

    It's powering off at any particular moment. It could work hours before it decides to shut off, or it could be 10 minutes. Switch Flip. Not the regular shutdown process. I tried this and had no driver issues either. I'm led to believe it's the power supply. I'm going to swap it out...

    PC powering off spontaneously

    Already checked this; not an issue. Already checked this; not an issue. I'll try this and see what happens. I'll have to try and get a hold of a Linux CD... Well, that's tough to say. The person that's using this PC does digital photography. He uses Photoshop CS2 on a regular basis. So yes...

    6600 GT Freezing PC during gameplay

    My PC is in the annoying habit of freezing during gameplay. Originally, it was after an hour to an hour and a half that the PC would freezes requiring a hard reboot.

    Having 2 Logitech mice installed at the same time?

    I tried having two wireless Logitech mice connected and found they would interrupt each other even on different channels. If I would move them both at the same time, the mouse didn't move. If I was moving one, then moved another at the same time, the pointer would freeze. Likewise, I could...

    [help] Couple annoying keyboard quirks

    Have you tried checking your regional settings in Control Panel? If you reformatted your PC, the wrong setting may have been chosen during the setup process. Also, you could try another keyboard. A cheap $5 keyboard will tell you if it's a PC problem or a keyboard problem. If it's wirelss...

    Help with cooling and PSU.

    Thanks for the reply. Yeah, I got 'em switched. I was running out the door when I wrote the message; litterally on my PDA. I've had some other Enermax suggestions, so I'll probably go with that. And I'll look at the heatsinks that you suggested. Thanks again! :cool:

    Good evenin' everyone: I have a basic MSI microATX mobo (KM4M-V, Via KM400 chipset) with an AMD Athlon XP 2800. My power supply is going bad, my case temp averages 50C and processor temp averages 30C. I'm not big into modding, but I've been told by others that the temp is too high and to...
