I just built a new rig the other day. It works like a dream - until I try to download a large file or use a bittorrent program. The download always stops and then the internet doesn't work until I restart my computer. If I choose not to restart my computer, soonafter I will see the "Blue Screen of Death." I'm using an integrated graphics adapter on a Biostar Tforce4 U. The chipset is Nforce 4 Ultra. There are no bios updates for the mobo and I've downloaded the newest nforce 4 drivers.
Here is my set-up:
biostar t force 4 u
Amd 64 3200+ venice,
250gb seagate sata,
geforce 6800 gs
1 gb (2x512) corsair value dual channel
Windows xp pro w/ SP2
After the internet dies it still operates and I can play HL2 normally, I just cant do anything internet related. I'm thinking it might have something to do with the nforce network adapter driver, but I have the latest one. I've tried downloading the BF2 demo and it gets 20 or 50 or even 90 percent of the way done and stops downloading.
Do you think installing a pci ethernet adapter would solve it? I know that people have problems with nforce IDE drivers. Are the Nforce sata drivers bad too? Maybe it just gets tired of writing a large file to disk. If so, can I get MS sata drivers?
Please, can anyone help? Thank you in advance.
