    System Crash on new build

    One key error that constantly appears in my event log near the crashes is nvlddmkm. I've always felt that this was somehow a graphics problem. I'm researching the nvlddmkm error now and see that it is a pretty big deal that is widespread. I hope it is the root.

    System Crash on new build

    Well, it sure took me a long time to get back to this. I've had a hectic week at work, so that's why. I saved the event log as a .txt and I will paste it here. I'm looking at it and it looks like the application event log not the system event log. I'll get that one up today as well. Here it...

    System Crash on new build

    I used the windows reliability and performance monitor, but I can't figure a good way to get the report on here. Suffice it to say that all checks showed good, it passed all tests. More importantly, I saved the Event Log file. There are two recurring errors that occur near every crash...

    System Crash on new build

    Hi, I just completed my new build. Every now and then, sometimes while windows is booting, sometimes not for 20 or 30 min, my computer crashes hard. The screen freezes up, and gets a tight horizontal band of lines that move a little bit and change colors. Usually at the top of the screen...

    Help with budget SFF build

    Thanks for the detailed info guys. I'm checking it all out right now. If nothing else, I at least have a base point from which to conduct my research now. I'll post back once I'm a little more familiar with the hardware you listed. Thanks again

    Help with budget SFF build

    Hi all, I plan on making my first foray into the world of Small Form Factor this summer. At this point I have practically no knowledge as I've only dealt with regular sized computers before. So, let me tell you what I'm looking for, and hope you guys can give me some good advice...

    Arrgghhh!

    Update: I think that I discovered the setting. It was Support for dual 6600 vga cards (enable, disable). And it had been disabled. Everything works once again now that I enabled it, however, my output is coming, once again, from the top card. I thought that it was supposed to come from...

    AS5 on XFX 7900GT

    What do you guys think about the Thermalright V1 Ultra. Would that even fit in SLI? Rallymaster: That made me laugh. Yeah, not the greatest picture in the world, that one.

    AS5 on XFX 7900GT

    Praxis: See that's the thing. I've seen so many glowing reports for both that it's hard to decipher which one would be better for me. Thanks

    AS5 on XFX 7900GT

    Well, I had one of my 7900GT's out for an unrelated issue I was trying to resolve when I got inspired to throw some AS5 under the stock HSF and see what, if anything it accomplished. So far they've been idling in the 36-40 range. I'll post my results when I get them in a few days, giving...

    X-Fi Pin Assignment

    Thanks Darkswordsman, that, at least, is a step in the right direction. At least now I know it can be done and someone does in fact know how.
