I did not mean that I physically reset the system, using the system reset button.. on the case. I do a software restart (either from Win 8/ Ubuntu) and this scenario occurs.
Another thing that I noted : Doing a shutdown from ubuntu, actually shuts down the whole thing, but a shutdown from Win...
So I did a recent custom build.
CPU : AMD Phenom II X6
MB: Biostart A780L3B
PS : OCZ ZS 650W
I used a cheap case for the build. When I do a system-restart/reset the computer tries to shutdown but I still hear the fan spinning/whizzing sound, and I have to manually hold the power button...
No wonder you didn't hear about it, it's an onboard - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GeForce_6_Series%23GeForce_6100_and_6150_series&usg=AFQjCNG3ChCxUlndWT1F_85toS5IQn1cdA&sa=X&ei=EmFYTLuDAcL68AbLo4TBCg&ved=0CC8QygQ

Awright.. Reattached the HSF...
Reapplied a new paste (saw that the previous thing was not well seated..)
Now I checked in the BIOS for 10 mins
CPU temp stays at 42-43-44-45C
Thanx for the help guyz!
Looks like I'm good to go!
Yeah and under load (ie. WinXP)
The temps are

Thanx for the quick reply.
Problem probably is I've not used good thermal paste.....
and I'm on the stock hsf.... (can't afford a dedicated cooler)
Thing is : here is the data on BIOS itself :

CPU Temp : 60C/61C
(This starts from 36C when I start up and gradually...

Does this board feature onboard graphics?
This board seems to be a bang for the buck!
EDIT : Found out that the 650i doesn't have onboard video but still ... for less than 90$ this board's a...
I have an old Asus A7V400MX + AMD Sempron 2200+
It boots up sometimes and sometimes it doesn't .. I mean, its sorta intermittent.
Under normal circumstanceas, once you power up the CPU after sometime a 'beep' comes and the three LEDs in the keyboard viz. Num Lock, CAPS lock and Scroll lock...
Bumping my old thread..
But then That SATA overheating problem just seems to be at my place..When I used it at my friends' place - There was no problem at all!
I guess - It's not got anything to do with airflow or that sort..
Probably it's coz of my mobo ASUS A8V-VM SE ...
It has the VIA8237...
^ Thanks for all the info guyz!
But still ...
Say I get an AMD X2 (AM2) @ 2GHZ,
1) It essentially means 2 cores @ 2GHZ each?
2) It also means I won't be theoretically getting (2*2) 4GHZ @ any point of time.... And Dual Core is only utilised when one core is maxed out?
1. Isn't AMD's Dual Core CPU - > the AMD X2 ?
2. Is it based on x64 Architecture ?
3. Whats the socket for the X2? AM2 -> which is 940 pin?? OR Anything else also?
4. Does AMD X2 come in two pin configs ?
Something like this...

Can someone suggest a Word Flasher software?
It's like a small textbox appearing in one of the corners of the screen , which takes some words randomly from a dictionary (this could be customizable, say, If I want only GRE(*) type words, I can choose that source) and shows for some 5 seconds...
Which one is better performance-wise?
I know both are at the same costs...
What I'm concerned abt. is that the 9800PRO is DDR1 whereas the 6600GT is DDR3 ..
So this means there'll be a massive difference between the two?
Here's the GPUreview comparison...
Point is....
Most Electronic items / Computer parts are made in China / Taiwan.
Where is China/Taiwan?
Is it closer to US rather than India? NO
So why is it costlier here in India rather than in the US???
Not becoz' of lack of demand, it's coz' distributors here are greedy.. that's it...

Does a 8500GT really PWN a 6600GT?
Lots o' ppl who've had first hand experience with the budget 8500GT say it performs better than a 6600GT....
Is this true?
I don't need any benchmarks / charts...
But people who have really used the 8500GT .. please respond!
Not really sure about the 256MB 7300GT...
How's the performance?
Since 6600GT is a 6-series card and 7300GT is a 7-series card and both are GT, I thought maybe the 7300GT beats the 6600GT.
But I suppose its the other way around.... :confused:
Can someone compare the 7300GT with its...
