I've been having a problem as of late. It only happens with two programs (that I can tell and could be unrelated). World of Warcraft and Adobe Audition 2.0.
System specs are Athlon 64+ 3800. 3gb ddr400. ati X1600 256 mb
Periodically when playing World of Warcraft (always at the worst...
The game isnt even done installing and its already better than anything I've ever seen. I'm totally entertained by the loading screens lol.
I was shocked to open it up and find 6 disks inside, but i guess the more the merrier huh :)
What were your first thoughts?
I'm at a loss.
I would try to work on the problem myself if I even had the slighest idea of where to begin.
Lets see... I'll start by giving a little background.
3.2ghz athlon64
3gb pc3200 ram
ATI Radeon XT1600X 256mb vid card
2 x WD 80GB 7200rpm hdd
Asus A8N-SLI mobo
WinXP...
They seem to be working just fine. Spinning well, no funny noises or smells or anything.
They are blinking in set patterns. Over, and over, and over again in the same rotation so I'm pretty sure they're suppose to be blinking.
I just purchased 2 casefans. Dynex Blue LED Case Fan to be exact. They didn't say on the package that the LED's were BLINKING instead of always on. Is there any way to mod the fans so that the LED's stay on and stop this incessantly annoying blinking?
Well, I took it to a local computer shop, and they tested the PSU and said that some of the connectors were dead. So I purchased a new PSU and am about to install it. I'm worried that my mobo isnt far enough off the case though...
Alright here is the story.
I ordered 6 things from newegg last week: Mobo, processor, PSU, case, ram, video card. On thursday I recieved my Mobo, PSU, Processor and Video card. Since i reaaaallly wanted to try out this new system i used my old ddr400 ram and harddrive and booted up...
Oh yeah, this is the PSU I got

I've fiddled around some more but to no vail.
I've tried to start it with the bare minimum. Harddrive, Vid card, Mobo, Processor, Ram.
Any suggestions at all? I'm lookin for anything here really.
Hey everyone. It's been a few years since I built my last rig, so I figured what better place to come for help when I can't get something working correctly.
Today I had some new computer parts delivered:
Radeon X1600XT
Asus A8N-E Mobo
Athlon 64 processor
450watt XClio PSU
I am...
Thanks for the quick and detailed reply! This will be primarily a gaming machine as I use my laptop for work purposes. I will definitly look into your suggestions listed above. Thanks again.
It's been 4 years since I built my last machine. I know I'm rusty so I was just making sure all these parts are compatible before I send in my order.

woops. forgot to put the OS. on my desktop im running XPpro, on the laptop i currently am running XP home.
I am also running ZoneAlarm Firewall. the free version.
I'll try what you suggested here in a second and let you know what happened.
Well I've scoured the FAQ and google... tried asking tons of friends and even people i hardly know/dont know at all. I just cant seem to figure out what is wrong.
My situation is as follows... I recieved my new laptop yesterday. I want to set up my desktop and laptop to share files...
Lately my wireless intellimouse has been pointing to random places, clicking, and scrolling all at once all by itself. I'm not sure if this is a hardware problem or if i have a virus or what... Has anyone had this problem?
Oh, so i dont have to update bios? All i have to do is install mobo drivers? i can do that i think.
my card is a Chaintech Nvidia geforce fx5700le 256mb AGP 8x/4x. im not sure what BFG means.
I'm going to try to install mobo drivers right now, ill let you know how that goes.
Artifacts, thank you. You're the only one to know that so far.
Case cooling. Well... im not really sure what is considered ok cooling. When i touch the card after i'ts been running it feels fine. Would opening the case help it cool better perhaps?
Update my chipset. I''m not huge on...
Ever since i installed my nvidia geforce fx5700le 256mb i've been having an issue while running Star Wars Galaxies. While in game there are long slender triangles and lines flashing on my screen. i have NO idea what these things are or what is causing them. if anyone know what this is and how...
just installed audigy LS card and my sound doesnt work at all. when i try to play something in winamp the song progress bar moves but there is no recognation of sound in the viz box. any ideas?
dude... you cant find wheels for a TEG??? you have to be kidding. look at some Volk TE-37's (knockoffs are a LOT cheaper lol) or look at the racing hart wheel line. you can find some wheels that look AWESOME. check out car magazines and stuff too.
The title pretty much says it all... I will try to elaborate though.
Basically, it happens more when im listening to music, but it does happen while playing games, etc. Sound will be fine for a while, then all of a sudden there will be this krackling/hissing noise along with the music. If...

check out the drivers tab. all the drivers are for audio. maybe i missed something though...
i mean of either BIOS or drivers. the only driver updates on the asus website are for audio drivers. and ive got the newest bios.
thanks for the ide controller clarification
