I don't quite understand what do you mean by 'case isn't active with power'? You mean power is leaked to the casing?

267893 2004-09-01 23:28:00 Yup brush your arm along any part of the case . See if u feel power . . If so, you have a faulty power point . . . . . replace it, coz it WILL most probably fry 1/2 or most of your CPU . . . . This can and will cause constant crashing . Spacemannz (808)
267894 2004-09-01 23:30:00 Somehow, removed Video card, RAM and re-install them to ensure that they are seated properly. System boots OK with one beep but after loading Windows half way through, BSOB returns.

Should I go and grab a stick of RAM to try out?

267895 2004-09-01 23:34:00 Umm how many sticks of ram?? If u have 2, I would try each 1 separately, see if the BSOD appears. If BOTH make XP crash, I doubt its the ram. It would be something else. Spacemannz (808)

267897 2004-09-01 23:43:00 Yup ok, if u know someone who can give u 1 or 2 sims that'll help. At least if it crashes, then it isnt the ram thats the prob. Spacemannz (808)

267900 2004-09-01 23:58:00 how did you try to reinstall windows ? did you format first ? or just try an over the top reinstall ?

strip the pc down to the basics, check bios settings. format and reinstall.
