To all thanks for the the help. It seems the mem test is the problem. I run it and get tons of errors. Can't even begin to tell ya how many but it is in the 1000's. Another question came up on the test. I see the report back about the processor (P4 2.4B) has a L1 cache of 8k @ 19714MB/s. Is...

I have a Gigabyte GA-8ihxp P4 2.4B 533 buss running windows 2kSP3 with all updates. Antec 430 watt PS and on a battery backup, MSI 4600 video card. The computer can be on all day and run without a problem. Then whatever you are doing... i.e. maybe even just move the mouse, the screen goes...

Nice try about the EU currency but I disagree. Even if there is some truth to it, the Civil War was not about freeing the slaves either. As far as Europe goes they hate the US because of our freedom. They love dictators i.e. Kaiser Wihelm, Hilter, and Mussolini. You just witnessed history ...

I am using a WD 80gig Special Edition HD with windows 2k SP3. On Norton Bench Mark and Sandra I get low scores as compared to other benchmarks. I see other benchmarks with the Gigabyte 8IHXP are low also compared to similar setups, like a Dell 8200 computer and Asus Mbs . Is it due to the...

Regalk.... Its up to you if don't want to purchase a Gigabyte mb, but it was the dual bios that saved me. Very easy. I have a MSI and Gigabyte mb both are excellent . The main problem I come across that causes crashes more than hardware is software . Good luck with whatever MB you chose there...

What is the most commonly used Burnin for a stable system and benchmark software? I see PCWorld has a benchmark but its not avaiable to use . Also I just tried Norton Sysworks but I don't see anyone on this fourm use this.

Hi Everyone, once again thanks for the help. I found the problem, or at least the fix. It was my BIOS. It somehow went south. How I found it was a desperate attempt . I removed the battery and power cord for about 20 seconds then replaced the battery and magic my display came up and the...

Thanks for the replys. I do not hear any beeps. I have not added anything new as a matter of fact the computer was running at the time it shutdown. It as done this before but always rebooted. Not this time though. I have tried another PS also with the same results. Another thing I just noticed...
