Can someone answer the EZ_Plug question please? And I tried the floppy cables and cd cables, it still had boot problems and instability :/ My friend is coming over today, so I'll be able to stick some of his parts in my PC to see if that helps and stuff, only because I'm letting him use my...

Do I need to use the EZ_Plug thing if I don't have SLI? Because I'm not using it right now. I thought it was SLI only, but maybe not? And I'll try the floppy thing and CD thing.

Well, I disconnected the HDD, and it still randomly boots up. So I'm assuming the HDD isn't causing the boot problems, but I'm going to assume it's causing the other problems. It wouldn't cause a problem booting to BIOS anyway, would it? Something is wrong along w/ the HDD I guess :(

Well, I'm fairly certain it isn't mobo now. And my PSU is showing good voltages in BIOS (11.96 and 4.97 and 3.32). Yea, I guess that HDD is getting gone. I just transferred all kinds of crap to it too :(

Guys, could this be a hard drive problem? I formated and installed Windows, and now the screen just freezes. The reason I think it could be a HDD problem is because I updated CS:S, and then it froze. I restarted a few times and the update was still there, but then after one restart, it had to...

Do you guys know if the Windows Hotfix messes with Source games? I installed that after the blue screen, and now it loads up find, and I join the server. But like 5 seconds after the game is loaded (i can pick my team, and start watching people for like a second) it just freezes, then the...

According to that link, it could be a network problem, but I don't know. I'll wait and see if it ever pops up when I'm not using the network :/

I just started CS:S again, and this time, the screen went black, and the sound is just repeating :( I manually set my mem voltage to 2.7v as well, hoping that might fix it. Extra voltage can't hurt can it (it's rated at 2.6v).

Alright, I just built a new PC, and I already sent the mobo back because I thought it was the problem. Well, I'm still having problems. (sorry for sounding brief, but I've got help (that didn't work) from multiple forums so far, I'll try to stay specific O.o). SPECS: Athlon X2 3800+...

Meh, my old PC (which I now use as a server) was a Dell and I never had problems with it. It was just a P4 1.7 GHz with a 64MB GeForce, but that thing was pretty damn good in its day. Right now, its happily sitting in the corner on a little desk serving people random files I need to give them...

Because the Video Card translates the binary into pictures (that is correct, isn't it?), therefore it dying would cause a bad translation. If the picture came out fine for us, then that would mean it was the monitor.

Maybe something is messed up for me, but did you not post anything...?

I would rather not get a detention this early in the school year :P
