Should it feel like I'm about to snap the motherboard in half while installing the Core 2 Duo E6300 stock heatsink on my Asrock 4Coredual-VSTA motherboard?
Thanks
Would the cpu overheat in less than 30 seconds? Thats about the longest amount of time it will stay on. I am using the Intel stock heatsink with Artic Silver. So is it probably motherboard then?
I tried both sticks individually in each slot and still no go. Also the computer won't stay on long enough for me to change the bios settings.
Also sometimes it will get past post and other times it turns off before post.
I got a xclio goodpower 500w power supply to replace my old one and it is still turning off during boot. I also reseated the Cpu. Anyone have any other ideas.
thanks
My computer is a Core 2 Duo E6300, Gigabyte DS3, 1gb of ram and a Geforce 6500 with Vista Business. It is going on a year old. When I try to turn it on it will randomly shut off at different times during boot. Sometimes at the POST screen and other times at the screen that says Start Windows...
I have a Thinkpad T22 with Windows XP Pro and an Orinoco Gold Wireless Card. Up until yesterday everything was running smoothly. Now when I try to download anything or have a few tabs open in Firefox my computer locks up (mouse wont move or anything) for about 30 seconds then it goes back to...
I installed Windows Vista Business today and my parents got confused because things were different. I was wondering if there were any themes that made Vista look like XP. Thansk
I finally got my Core 2 Duo system up and running. I have an 80gb sata hard drive that is working fine. However my 200gb ide hard drive isnt being recognized. When its set to master my dvd drive (set to slave) wont work and xp freezes up. When my hard drive is set to cable select or slave with...
I am running XP Pro and this morning my mouse and keyboard started acting up. When I try to double click on any folder or program it brings up the items properties. Also my keyboard won't type letters but the F keys work and when I backspace it puts a little rectangle instead. Any idea what...
I'm uploading two images that will prove it shipped. I feel a little uneasy about posting the tracking number. I will edit this post with the links when they are uploaded.
I'm looking to build a new system. Right now I have an agp Geforcefx 5600 256. I was looking at either the Geforce 6800xt or radeon x800gto. Which processor will overclock better?
I'm still in high school and i'm starting my summer job soon so I will probably save up until conroe. Will it use ddr or ddr2 ram as my current motherboard uses ddr and would like to know if I can use it?
Ok, thanks. I will start saving my money. Will this Core 2 Duo E6300 1.86GHz / 1066MHz 2MB offer better proformance or will I have to get a higher end one?
Ok thanks for all the great and quick responses.
I will probably go with this setup:
Pentium 4 631 3.0 Ghz
Asus P5ND2-SLI Motherboard
1Gb of ram
XFX Geforce 6800xt 256 (x1800xt a bit too much for me)
I didnt see any motherboards that have pci-e that support my current processor. Is there any you know of or will agp still be upgradable in the future?
