I got the following rig a week ago :
- Intel Core 2 Quad Q6600 GO 2.40GHz Quad Core CPU Overclocked too a minimum of 3.30GHz and beyond. (8/9 x 400MHz - 1600MHz FSB)
- Tuniq Tower 120 Pro Blue LED Intel approved cooler
- Arctic Silver 5 Heatsink compound professionally hand installed by our technicians
- Abit IP35-Pro Intel P35 (Socket LGA775) PCI-Express DDR2 Motherboard
- Award winning Crucial 2GB Ballistix Tracer PC2-8500 CAS5 (2x1GB) Dual Channel Kit (Overclocked at 1000MHz+)
- 500GB Western Digital 16MB Cache SATA-2 Hard Drive
- NVIDIA 8800 GT 512MB GDDR3 HDTV/Dual DVI (PCI-Express) DirectX 10 Graphics Card
- Pioneer 115DBK 20x DVD±RW Dual Layer ReWriter (Black)
- Antec NINE HUNDRED Gamers ATX Case
- OCZ 600W Next Generation Power Supply
It was working fine for a week. I then left the pc on overnight downloading some stuff and came back the next morning to find the pc still on, but the monitor on standby mode. Normally when you move the mouse or keyboard etc the monitor comes back on.
This time it did not and would not respond in anyway so I rebooted the pc. The first few times it stuck on the bios screen so I then removed the power cable from the psu The pc then tried to boot into windows vista but it came up with a blue screen saying my work was being saved and the pc restarting to avoid damaging my pc.
On subsequent boots it then said checksum error : checksum doesnt match value on file.
I tried repairing with the vista cd but no joy.
Any ideas ? or should I just send it back to the distributor as it is only a week old and I havent made any alterations to the setup.
I think also I may have lost network connectivity through my router.. although I couldnt check on my computer, the other pc linked to the router could not connect to the internet.
Any ideas how this could have happened? Could windows have tried to auto update but as I was downloading and accessing the hard disk it may have gone wrong? I know I didnt lose power to the pc in the night.
