Are there any good hardware computer technicians which you can refer guys. I have some problem and I need a good hardware technician who is knowledgable about everything inside the computer.
 
Yeah, You can tell us what is the issue. We will try to solve it out in the best way possible :)
 
My computer when I start it, It takes 30 mins to start. The start screen comes after 30 mins. If you want to check my config click on my name and check out the thread of 3tb started by me. You an check my system config over there rahul.
 
Backup all stuff that you need on another drive and do a format. This is the beat solution for now. Else you could try to download a bootable antivirus tool and scan at boot. Also do check if it's not a HDD issue.

The Technician came and he formatted the operating system and installed Windows 7. After installing Windows 7, It took me 6-8 hrs to install all the updates and messengers and everything. While installing all this stuff the computer closed automatically 3-4 times on its own. The Engineer itself said that if this happens then it may be a motherboard issue. Its been more then 5 yrs for my system. But after seeing my computer he also told that its in a very good condition and you can get a good rate if you sell it. Now I juz wanna say that my processor quad core he said its good for the long run also. You can juz purchase a good motherboard. So I juz want to know which motherboard I should purchase which can be compatible with the AMD quadcore processor. Also in future if my processor doesnt work well can I purchase I7 processor or not. Want to know that. This is my system config.

Operating System: Windows 7 Ultimate 32-bit (6.1, Build 7600) (7600.win7_gdr.120401-1505)

No you cannot upgrade from an AMD Phenom compatible motherboard to an Intel Core i-series processor. It is either you stick to AMD build OR upgrade the complete system now [instead of just replacing the motherboard].

Also finding a compatible AM2 / AM2+ motherboard will be a difficult affair [if not very expensive] but the major issue will be your RAM as it is DDR II and current standard being DDR III and it is proposed that by mid-2013 DDR-4 will be put into serial production.

Just a word of advice, why don't you run a few tests to clear all your components of doubt --
1) MemTest86+ to test your RAM for any errors, download it from here and run the full 11 passes to clear any doubt from the RAM;
2) Try to run a CHDSK operation on your hard-drive to see if any bad-sectors are present.


Hope this answers your query and a rapid recovery of your system. Cheerio!!

What does closed imply? Did the system restart? Did it throw a BSOD?

This could be a case of the processor overheating or a faulty memory stick(s).

Alpha, I have ran the chkdsk and attaching the pic for the same. The Memtest is still running from past 10-11 hrs till now. Its checking now and its on 3685.4% Coverage, 0 errors till now. chkdsk.jpg

Closed imply means when using any program to browse, It gets automatically closed in between like say after 3 hrs or 5 hrs random closing. No BSOD or any error or anything as such.
 
Then it looks like the processor is overheating. Download Real Temp, run a CPU stressing bench such as OCCT or maybe 3~4 instances of 32M Super Pi and keep a note of the temperatures. As a fail-safe measure, the processor will force the system to shut down in the event of overheating.

Okay that removes any doubts on a dying hard-drive OR RAM problems.

Do you mean the program you are using for web-browsing closes down? OR the whole computer SHUTS-down?

Have you implemented some power saver plan on your copy of Windows OR sleep mode after certain time period / sleep mode after a stipulated period of inactivity?

Please use proper terminology OR ask us if you are in doubt.
 
Alpha, I don't understand about this sleeping thing. If you can do a remote session on my computer then you can find it out. I would be grateful to u if u can help me out. Now 24 hrs has passed and still the MEMTEST is running and its 6084.5% coverage and 0 errors still now.

Please let me know how much more time would it take to complete this test for just 2gb RAM.

Till today Morning I mean till 35 Hrs it was on 8064.8% coverage and 0 errors and then I went to sleep and my PC was on only. Now when I woke up at 2.30 pm in the afternoon my computer must have got restarted bcoz it was off. But my CPU was on. So this is what I was talking about. So that means for 40 hrs the computer must have ran smoothly. After that it might have closed down on its own.
 
Now I am just confused since its not working properly should I wait 1 yr as Alpha said that after a yr DDR4 ram will be launched by mid 2013. Or should I purchase from these which you ppl suggest. Dont knw what should I do.

Are you looking to buy a PC right now?

Haswell and DDR 4 will come in mid-2013 [in India] will definitely demand a premium then and the prices of RAM modules will not be as cheap as it is now [although it might taper of to similar pricing once DDR 4 becomes the de-facto standard].

Are you going to over-clock OR not?

What is your budget?

If you need a PC right-now please go ahead and buy one, if you need advice on the same please say so. Just answer the queries I have posed.

Hope this answers your queries, Cheerio!!

P.S. -- to tag users use this method @<user handle>. E.g. --
I want to tag your name it will be @+ John4321 [minus the + symbol] = @John4321,
