Hey all,
I'm looking to purchase 2 gigs of memory to game with and could use some advice.
Here are my computer components:
Asus A8N SLI Deluxe (10 syllables!)
AMD Athlon 64 X2 3800
nVIDIA nForce4 SLI
NVIDIA GeForce 6800 GS
WD 250GB HD
Lian-Li V1100Bplus
Sythe Ninja
Gateway...
Woo, figured it out.
The problem was that the chipset cooler was not firmly attached to the motherboard, so the sporatic contact was causing overheating and Windows was mad at me.
Thanks for the response!
Hm, ram looks good.
Memtest is giving me this Error: Can't find "rawrite.exe". This program muyst be in the same directory as the install script.
Installation failed!
Press any key to continue...

Thanks for the responses.
I installed them cause i was gear-happy.

Thanks to all of you for helping me decide on what components to purchase for my new computer. It arrives from Monarch Computers today, but now I'm not sure what to do first, aside from opening it up and verifying all the right parts are in it.
What tests/checks should I perform on...
Heya,
I'm looking for a bay device that controls fans based on temperatures and will look nice in my new Lian-Li v1100Bplus that will arrive shortly.
I *think* I have nit narrowed down to:
Lian-Li TR-3B
or
Silverstone Eudemon
...but I'm really not sure which is better. Any...
Concerning Monarch & Cyberpower:
I have been researching components and online vendors for over three months now. When I first started, Cyberpower was what I was going to go with. However, after several phone conversations with Puget Computers, Cyberpower, and Monarch Computers, comparing...
Howdy,
I'm looking to buy a seagate barracuda 7200.8 300GB Harddrive as part of a custom build on NCIX.com ( http://secure.ncix.com/pcbuilder/index.php?action=config&id=2274183&platformid=1000 ),
and am unsure what the difference is between SATA W/NCQ and IDE ATA100.
I'm going to get an...
Ah, I see this post was moved from General Hardware to Case Modding.
The reason I did not post in Case Modding is because my question had to do with general hardware, and not Modding of any sort.
Sorry for the misplacement.
Any more opinions on ATX vs BTX. Which one should I buy now?
