its only 6 months old so i dont think its dying.i tryed errror checking but i clcik start and nothing happens.


EDIT: panic over! i accidently had the jumpers set to 'limit to 32GB'

I'm begging to think i have a virus on my 2nd HD when ever i browse through it my CPU usage shoots up to 100% and then it basiccly grinds to a halt

Case Outside

my case is out side,

night - just how long are your mouse/keyboard & monitor cables? lol

...just a little fun poking...!


cheers,

[NightTran]

I mean they are not under table, monitor is on top of the table but the case is sitting next to it, mouse and key board cable is long because they are all usb2, Monitor cable is not that long 2-3 feet


just wonder why my sensor repost does not include the mother board T

I mean they are not under table

I knew that. However, outside would keep it cooler! ('cept for June - August mid-day!)

I have a friend who keeps his pc on top of the desk beside him, because he is concerned about all of the dust/dirt at floor level getting into his pc.

my wife keep turn off airconditioning that is why it hot

better revise the list of house rules little buddy

Yeah, I have that problem once in awhile too...

To make matters a bit worse, my case, while spacious/large is a generic/no frills one. The intake holes on the front, a total of 16, were only about 1/16".

I recently drilled them out to 1/4", & it made a noticable difference in the temps. Want to install a couple more fans in the future.

[Chewy]

many of the older design cases, have an intake in the bottom of the case front, this is effectively blocked by carpet, I put them up on little blocks of wood, even if there's no carpet

since windows doesn't see it and nero doesn't see, could you post a screen shot of disk management?

what kind of hard drive is it?

and yet another problem is,my 2nd HD and my 2nd dvd writer sometimes r never detected (on the boot screen it shows none on secondary master and slave)
