I would up that to an ~80% chance lol. It's too bad you don't have an Apple Store near ya, tehy are great for things like this. Let us know how it goes!
It's so hard to compare a Macbook to other lines - I initially got an Envy with the Radiance screen and though it was awesome - until I got my Macbook Pro and the build quality just annihilated the Envy. I don't think you'll be dissapointed - you don't get as much for your money but the Macbook...
On a side note, what mobo temps are considered optimal? Mine are at ~43c with the case on and with the cover off and a large fan blowing into the case I can only get them down to ~35c.
sirmonkey, you rock. The voltage was set to 1.80v and upping to 2.1v seems to have stabilized everything, now passing intel burn test no problems and no blue screens to be seen! I am going to keep prime going to tonight and see how she fairs. Not sure why everything was ok the first time...
Completely new system other than the CPU which I bought used here off the forums, however it all seemed to be running fine before/no BSOD's. Only thing I did which was admittedly retarded was bump the the FSB to ~338 with a 9x multiplier when I reinstalled thinking I could pull an easy 3.0 ghz...
First of all thanks for the quick replies! I am about to check the memory settings, I should also mention that I am blue screening running small FFT's. Hell the damn thing is blue screening (or just randomly restarting/freezing up) anytime I do something that requires load.
Hey guys,
I just put together my new rig and now I am having some problems. I put everything together one time with a Coolermaster HyperN 520 HSF the first time but it wouldn't fit my case. I ordered another Coolermaster (Gemini IIs) and reinstalled everything and now I am having issues.
I...
Hey Guys,
Just built the HTPC specs in my sig below. However I am having some sleep issues using Window 7 x64. When I put the computer into sleep if I move the mouse within 10 seconds it will wake like normal and boot right up. However, if I wait several minutes and try I can see the...
N/M re-read the mobo manual and it appears that when in S3 state all LED lights are out. However I am still having sleep problems but I will post that in another forum.
Thanks!

Hey fellas,
Hopefully this is the right sub forum, I just wondering if anyone can help me. I've hooked up everything for my new HTPC build (below in sig) and installed Windows 7 x64. Everything works good until I try to put the PC in sleep mode. The whole computer seems to shut off and all...
Well I have reset the CMOS and that didn't help. I also pulled out of the components and started with memory and video but still no luck. Could the memory keep it from posting?
-Thanks!

First of all thanks for the replies!
The board came back to me in a plain white box and the CPU mount screws on the mobo were actually loose! I had to tighten them... I do not know if they tried to repair it or not, there wasn't any note in the box. It actually kind of sucks becauseI sent...
Hey guys,
I built this computer about 9 months ago. It ran for about 6 to 7 months until one day I was in Windows and the thing froze up on me. I restarted and all that happened was my fans and everything else came on but I hear no beep to indicate POST and the screen stays blank and the green...
