I THINK I MAY HAVE FIXED IT! I think the Ultra XConnect PSU cable may have damaged the ATX connector on my mobo. It was bent to the side because of the weight and girth of the 20pin cable.

I just repositioned it and took this screenshot., it's been running a while already. You are looking at Prime95 running, DX9 Real-Time High-Dynamic Range Image-Based Lighting V1.2, Windows defrag and ABIT uGURU running at the same time to stress my OC. CPU is Prescott 3.6GHz. I'll post another after Prime finishes 1 set. Its taking VERY long just to complete 1 step.

Let me get this straight. You have a 3.6 Ghz P4 and a GeForce 6800 Ultra but only run 256MB of RAM!?!? Are you mental? 😛 😉

Seriously dude, get a gig!
 
Happy to hear your fixed it, also I have a question that app your running on the desk top with what looks like floating glass, can you post a link.

thanks
 
Renob, its called rthdribl. Do a search and you'll find it pretty easily.

Thats awesome if you've got it working.

And yeah, 256MB RAM with that CPU and video card?
 
LOL, I just had 256 for testing purposes, I do have 1GB RAM. Any less would be criminal. 😛

Its run for about 45 minutes already, I guess I am ok. It wouldn't run longer than a minute before. I am happy again. 😛 And its a plain Vanilla 6800, I wish it was an ultra.
