    HD formated from FAT32 to NTFS question

    Fantastic, I appreciate the answer. This is exactly what I thought. It appears my client is dead in the water. (this is what happens when you take a PC to FireDog (Circuit City) for PC repair, they sold her XP Pro and installed it over everything without any backups). Once again, thank you all.

    HD formated from FAT32 to NTFS question

    System crash while playing game - power OUT

    The powersupply is not dead, as a matter of fact it powered right back up, after I pressed the power button. The reason why it pushed me to think it was a power supply was the fact that is just went flat dead, no power. Not a BSOD, not any errors. I will also look at my EVGA Motherboard and...

    System crash while playing game - power OUT

    Well that is true, it does not say that it is SLI certified but it does say SLI ready, which would mean it has the connectors for two video cards power. I will look into getting the Toughpower one. Thanx

    System crash while playing game - power OUT

    Hello I am wondering if perhaps I do not have a high enough power supply for the setup I have. I was playing "Lost Planet: Extreme Conditions" on DX10 Vista Ultimate, and during one of the fight scenes (pretty graphically intensive scene) my system just powered off, it was like BAM and I had...
