1223817 2011-08-17 04:14:00 Yes I am in NZ, Auckland to be exact! Speedy Gonzales the tech has listed that motherboard code number G41M-AS3 on the invoice he gave me. jackie.t (16504)
1223818 2011-08-17 04:19:00 Well, dont know where he got the model from, since it doesnt exist in Google, or on the site. Are you near Mt Eden? Or where in Auckland are you? Speedy Gonzales (78)
1223819 2011-08-17 04:25:00 Yes quite close, I'm in Pt Chev. Maybe he made a mistake with the code, it comes up with Asrock logo and screen when I first turn my computer on so it is one of them! jackie.t (16504)
1223820 2011-08-17 04:27:00 Well if you want you can bring the case here. I cant come to you, since I dont have transport. And I could have a look. May take a while to find out what the prob is tho. I take it, its not the PC you're using on here at the mo?? If you do it maybe a bit tricky sending me a PM tho. You need 10 posts Speedy Gonzales (78)
1223821 2011-08-17 04:33:00 Yes it is the PC I'm using at the mo, it's between crashes! Sometimes it goes OK for a week, then kaput, no warning, no pattern, extremely frustrating! Sorry for the ignorance not sure what you mean about a PM and 10 posts?? jackie.t (16504)
1223822 2011-08-17 04:39:00 You need to mpost 10 times before you can send a private message ... you don't want to give out personal details in the open forum.

I and many others would vouch for Speedy any day .. he's one of the good guys.

1223823 2011-08-17 04:42:00 You have 6 posts now, you cant send PM's / private messages until you get to 10. Speedy Gonzales (78)
1223824 2011-08-17 04:48:00 OK thanks for clarifying that SP8's and for recommending Speedy, would be great to find someone reliable... jackie.t (16504)
1223825 2011-08-17 04:49:00 Have a look as well as to when the OS was installed - if its the original OS on the old hardware, then its more than likely causing the problem.

to check, double click on my computer, double click the C drive ( click on show files etc if its a blue window) then scroll down to the Windows folder, double click to open it, you may have to set the view to "detail", but have a look at the dates the folders were created. If it was in fact a fresh install the date will show as Jan ( what ever day) 2011 -- since you mentioned this was when it was changed over.

If it were a repair install or a simple change over, the dates will be pre 2010.
