the additional things in my case are:

NVIDIA nForce3 240 ATA Paralell ATA Controller

Texas Instruments OHCI Compliant IEEE 1394 Host Controller

Marvel Yukon 88E8001/9003/8010 PCI Gigabit Ethernet Controller

457667 2006-05-26 07:40:00 another crash after 1 hour. its wierd no pattern. It doesnt matter which programme i run or whatever it juyst happens. Gober (10451)
457668 2006-05-26 07:46:00 You did lock the ram in the slots, when u changed them around didnt u??

What I meant before was, are there any extra PCI cards in the case, like tuner or something else, apart from whats onboard, or besides the cd/dvd/hdd,/ram and videocard.

Have you installed anything else in the case recently?

457669 2006-05-26 07:49:00 I did lock the ram in, withg my motherboard it locks automatically when you push it in due to the way the little buttons on the side work .

Nothing new installed since i bought it about 6 -8 months ago .

I see i do have a RAID piece of hardware but it isnt my hdd, so could it be i need RAID?

with my power supply could it be that its set too high and the motherboard shotsircuts or something? (i dont know hjow it all works in there) should i try move the little red slider to a lower electrical imput setting?

457670 2006-05-26 07:59:00 look at the sticker on the side of the power supply, what brand and what wattage rating is it. ( it requires opeing the case). if the pc is a brand name do you have a model number? tweak'e (69)
457671 2006-05-26 08:21:00 model number is LC-B350ATX and from what i can see without taking out the entire power supply is "LAS" and looks like maby "TLAS" so i assume its ATLAS power supply. Gober (10451)
457672 2006-05-26 08:31:00 I did lock the ram in, withg my motherboard it locks automatically when you push it in due to the way the little buttons on the side work .

Good!

Ok



I see i do have a RAID piece of hardware but it isnt my hdd, so could it be i need RAID?

And where's this? In the case?


should i try move the little red slider to a lower electrical imput setting?

NO! If this is what I think it is (it goes from 230v to 115v), it'll fry your system completely, if u switch it over) . DON'T touch this!

I did this once, and I had to replace the motherboard lol .

457673 2006-05-26 08:43:00 heh cool i wont touch the 115w slider thingy, hmm the Raid thing lemme see....

SCSI and RAID controllers:

Location: On PCI bus.

thats what the thing says when i double click it in the device manager, i cant locate its locaiton in the manual comparing the things in my pc to the pic in the manual, perhaps the thing i see is just a driver that has been installed? But yeah all it says is PCI bus.

457674 2006-05-26 08:52:00 i think your power supply is way on the light side. try a bigger one (a good brand not some cheap rubbish) of around 450watt. tweak'e (69)
457675 2006-05-26 09:03:00 its 330 atm max i think and the slider is on 230. So a cheap and nasty power supply can cause freezes? Gober (10451)
