Well i have no idea what part is causing my problems. I'll load my comp and after maybe 10 minutes of just internet bwosing it will shit the bed but wont reboot. It takes me like 5 restarts to get it to post. I dont know whats causing it. I havent installed any new parts. Just a new monitor (193p+). A couple of weeks back my storage hd shit the bed. I dont if its the hd or something else.

Heres spec:

3200+ (whinchester core)
2x 1gb ocz dual platinum @ default 2-3-2-5 settings
80gb wd special edition
pny 6800gt
asus a8v deluxe

I just update the video card drivers to 77.77 and restarted once it hit the welcome windows screen it shit bed. Any of you guys have any ideas. I hope its the hd if thats the problem. Cause if its anything else i might have to return the 193P+ and spend that money on a new system. I wanted to wait till januray to get a new system as i always do. I wish i had a spar drive to test it out. ANy help will br greatly appreciated.

thanks

Try finding some diagnostic tools on the internet to test your drive. It could be a driver issue or software conflict also. If it reboots out of the blue there is a conflict somewhere.
 
what are your temps at

if all else fails do a format and reinstall windows
 
cpu temps are at 33c and video card is at 55c im swtiching video cards to an old ti4600 and see if it doesn the same thing. Whats a good diagnostic program?

Well i think my worst nightmare came true. Well not the worst but i think the video card shit the bed. Tossed in a ti4600 and so far no issues. God damn this. If i had a pci-e system i woundt care but its agp so im screwed. I knew i should have just went pcie way when i got this system. This sucks :( Well at least it gives me a reason to get a new system :)

Ill keep testing just to make sure though.

go to pny's site and see what they require to rma, most dont need receipts, but some places require you to have registered the product(registering usually requires a receipt date)
