Hi folks,
I just purchased a computer, its config
AMD 2800 64bit
Asus K8N E Dlx
XFX 5200 256mb
Seagate 80 gb sata
512 ddr ram
grabit (ibox cabinet with a extra fan)
Now the trouble I’m noticing with my pc is that every morning when I boot it up and say for instance play NFS underground2 it works for a while and closes off by itself. Then whatever u do it’s the same it doesn’t work. Now the temp of the board word but like 35˚C and the processor would be bout 40˚C.
This is what freaks me the most, in the afternoon when the board is about 40ËšC - 41ËšC and the processor is anywhere from 45ËšC to 53ËšC it runs as smooth as good whisky.
I have no clue in why this is happening, I first thought it was some kind of heating issues but now it don’t think that could be the cause.
Another think I’ll like all of u to know is my OS is XP which came integrated with SP2 and direct x 9.0c. (It was my friends’ idea of installing this one, which he specially build by integrating both of these to the OS)
Also for your information this config is running on a 300W SMPS....(i guess thats the problem )
Plz help me out here…. :huh:
