I'm going to enable AMD Expo in the bios and see if it corrects it.

While running CoreFreq I noticed one number was constantly red. Not sure what it represents but I would assume it's the RAM being that is "64G" which is my RAM stick size. Any idea?

Will give that a try now.

Yes, it does, but when it crashes abruptly like that it does not have time to report the crash in the log. I've tracked temps and everything is good on that behalf. It appears that when the system is under a heavy power load, this happens.

I've attached a pdf of my hardware components. I built a gaming/media unraid server after the holidays. While gaming or heavy transcoding, I noticed that the server would just randomly reboot. I ran a memtest & CPU stress test. I even went as far as replacing the GPU from the PNY to an ASUS...

All day I kept stewing on this crap and when I finally got home I went into the bios and sure as sh!t the boot sequence was set to Ubuntu and second was set as windows recovery. I booted up windows recovery w/ a flashed windows 10 bootable usb and bingo bango bongo it all worked! Thank you those...

Yes, that's exactly what I did. Then when starting the install process the PC rebooted and now I'm stuck here. The windows install drive will not load because of GNU GRUB. I've read 2 tutorials on what command prompt to run but they're several years old and do not seem to work for my situation.

I tried reinstalling Windows over Ubuntu and it cleared the drive but failed to install Windows and now I'm stuck with this. I followed a couple of tutorials online but nothing seems to work. I typed the whole "ls" command to find the usb with the windows installer and tried "chainloading" the...

*Update* I created a windows bootable drive within Ubuntu and it worked like a charm. I was creating the bootable drive from my gaming PC when having the issue. Thank you for the help! On to tiny11 now!!!

I have a Chuwi HeroBox Mini N5100 that I thought would be a good idea to put Ubuntu on to run Plex Server, Sonarr, Radarr, Prowlarr, Utorrent, & NordVPN. Let's just say it didn't run as smoothly as I'd like. I'm trying to reinstall Windows, preferably Windows Tiny11, but I continue to have a...

I bought a RT-N66u router to replace my DLink DGL-4500. I wanted the torrenting features of the asus router and the network HDD & printer features. My issues is I'm using Boxee Box to stream movies from my network HDD to the Boxee. I'm having issues with large MKV files stopping and buffering...

Anyone else go anything?

I am looking for used good parts for cheap to make a NAS Server (your average ATX board will work fine). Possibly parts from an old gaming rig that has been upgraded. I would have used my old AMD 3700+ setup but I sold that like 2 or + years ago. Parts I need: Motherboard w/ built in video &...

I have a Toshiba L305D-S5895 Notebook that I am trying to connect to my JVC i' Art Pro TV. The JVC TV is about 6yrs old but supports 1080i I believe. I have the laptop connected to the TV w/ a VGA to RGB rca cables & for the audio I have a Belkin IPod Y cable that seems to work fine. And the...

Didn't have to do anything just updated Vista and it all went good.

I had to re-install Vista and I am in the only account there is and it is the Admin account but when I go to install firefox it asks for the Administrators Password.....? I installed Vista Ultimate 64 if that helps. A fresh install.

is it possible to run Vista 32bit & 64bit on 1 PC w/ 2 HDDs? I've ran XP w/ Vista on 1 PC with 2 HDD's, Just wondering if it's the same. If it can be done with EasyBCD or do I need a different boot loader.

uummm.... I've been building computers for about 6yrs now. This isn't new to me so "the world of building computers" as you put it is not new to me at all. And this computer was only 1/2 custom built if you would have read the entire post. But thanks for not even contributing to the post and...

It was a joke of a PC, It's got a custom case w/ an HP (ASUS) motherboard. so pretty much someone gutted an HP PC and slapped it in to a custom case with no driver discs. So I had to go to HP's website and try to find the drivers, BUT they only supplied drivers for Vista and this guy wanted XP...

Yeah I googled. There are so many driver softwares out there its crazy. The reason I am bringing this up is I went to go fix a friends computer that he had custom build but it didn't come with a drivers disc, and he wanted XP installed and he had Vista. So I had to manually hunt for every damn...

I remember about a year ago I had a program that would auto update all my drivers and game versions. I just don't remember what it was called. Does anyone know of a software that will at least find and update all of my hardware drivers?

I have read that you install XP first but make sure that the HDD is partitioned then install Vista from inside XP. And once Vista is complete that you can select the OS on boot up. Is this true? This is the like where I read this. Run XP & Vista Together

I am looking for a good remote PC app that will allow me to control 1 PC from another over the internet. At work we use Timbuktu Pro but that is a pretty old software. I build PC's for friends and Family and who ever wants to buy, so I need something to offer tech support with out having to...

My multiplier keeps jumping around on my Intel Q9300. I know there is a setting in the bios to lock the multiplier but what is the option called? I know it was the cool & quit option on AMD. I have an Asus Rampage board and am running Vista Ultimate. Thanks for any help guys.

I got it, had to disable a bunch of crap first in the CPU settings and uninstall the AI OCer that came with Asus install disk. Weak auto OCer.

I am trying to OC my Q9300 w/ my Rampage board. I barely OC to 2.6 and it will reboot on my in windows. I am OCing from the bios by the way. I have Corsair Dominator ram 2x2gb @ 1066MHz. I have never dealt with a bios with so many options. I know something is enabled or disabled that shouldn't...

after hours of frustration and multiple OS installs (Vista 64 & 32, XP, & XP Pro 64) I finally found out its the graphics card. I swapped out the 8800GS w/ a 7900GTX and vista found it right away. Installed Nvidia driver and works great. Time to RMA this bastard!

You must work for Dell, HP, or Gateway cause your one of the smartest guys I've ever met in this forum. Cause your support was great. Try a different driver......... Must have taken some serious thought to make that kind of suggestion. Thanks for all your help and massive brain work there...

a different driver? Why didn't I think of that! Man your a genius! :rolleyes: Oh that's right I did think of that. No go!:mad:

I just built a nice little PC w/ an EVGA 8800 GS and every time I install the driver for Vista 32bit when I reboot it blue screens on me ( wont even get to the desktop ) then when I uninstall the driver it will boot fine but terrible res. I am using the ASUS Rampage Formula Motherboard w/ an...

I am considering running either XP Pro & Vista Ultimate 64 or XP Pro & Fidora 8 on one system. I have 2 hard drives, 1 for each OS. How do I set it up to do so?
