yeah figured out it was my sound card drivers, so disabled the onboard and popped in my old soundcard

Picture here Not sure what this means, but I just changed motherboards if anything may be conflicting. Any help appreciated, Interested to know this

heh, hate to bring this back up to the top but it just happened again so it is looking like the PSU didn't solve it :P

haha I know... I just want to verify it by having the problem occur with this psu first. Anywho, what a lovely time I've had doing trial and error. If I do return the psu and choose to get a new motherboard, is there any that you guys would happen to prefer? Pretty sure there are quite a...

Just thought about bringin this up since i was talking to the computer shop I generally go to when I had to get diagnostics ran but, Is my machine just not running at a capacity that needs the 3.3, 5 and 12 voltages at that # or higher? or is something messing with the numbers being lower than...

Yeah, getting the same voltage #'s on the bios As far as the performance issue.. it hasn't showed up since yesterday night after I did the housecall and rebooted. All the other things I've done I'm sure have helped extremely but I have yet to see it take effect again nonetheless. It's random as...

To reply back to all of ya guys, I did go to comp usa to buy a new psu - Antec Truepower Trio 550w. (14 days to refund if I don't find the problem!) My computer is dead silent now.. it kind of scared me how quiet it is, but it may be due to the huge fan on the top of my case not working even...

Mk then. I will probably be stopping after my dentist appt. to check and see if the comp usa by me has either an antec psu or the pc power and cooling that you just mentioned. Also was waiting for a response on the corsair forums to double check if its a totally confirmed psu problem.

Alrighty.. It's probably going to result in buying another PSU since I don't have any other ones lying around. Guess two other questions I would have to ask is if they are returnable generally, and if I go into PCWizard will I see the change in voltage with a new PSU?

Unless there is another way to check them, I don't have a multimeter. Are the voltages suppose to be precisely what they are said to be like 3.3v, 5v etc? PSU Stuff is a subject I haven't done much in :\

From what I saw, unless there was a detailed report which i didn't see, it just said that all the grayware\malware had been erased from my system. Dunno if it's possible to access that information now :x And I did see as well that voltages are lower than what they say they are. Also unsure...

Ran HouseCall twice since it found some stuff the first time and asked to rescan again (then confirmed clean) http://img138.imageshack.us/img138/3295/voltempwf8.jpg <- Temperature and Voltage screen off of PCWizard2008

Big first post, heh, and I would like to apologize ahead of time due to the length of what I'm gonna say since this problem has been a catastrophe for me (gaming wise) for the last few months (And I have yet to find the cure). I will be playing games with my buddies (Counterstrike 1.6, CS:S...
