See sig for system info, only change is now I have a MSI K8N Neo4 Platinum SLI
Problem(s) Summary:
Random frequent (can reproduce each within minutes in normal use) OS problems like ?Program has stopped responding? on file download prompts, My computer, IE, anything?. open process again and it works perfect.
Video corruption on the desktop, I can move through different windows or the start menu and pieces will be left behind on the screen.
Along with the above issues the following problems followed to new MSI Neo4 Platinum SLI motherboard:
Play WoW for hours quit to desktop? come back later and try to start WoW? I see gamma from game get applied and the WoW cursor appears then system locks up hard.
Hit Windows key from WoW doesn?t drop to desktop. Sometimes when I do drop and come back it comes back stuttery as hell (Why I thought MS hotfix below may resolve) then go into task mgr, then come back and it?s ok?.. subsequent drop to desktops work GREAT.
Things I?ve tried:
I ran every mem test known to man that I could find yesterday including the ones that require a boot floppy. NO ERRORS. So we can rule out the RAM.
I ran 3Dmark05 from 9pm until I woke up without a problem this should stress the video cards to the max and the second test bypasses the GPU?s and only uses the CPU power on the ?same? tests and if the CPU was bad you can be guaranteed a failure. Not a hitch. Another thing to point out is I don?t ever see any artifacts etc in video so I would think the VRAM is good.
Loaded ALL windows updates.
Reloaded Windows XP Pro multiple times on completely wiped hard drives.
MS hotfix leaked around here that fixed Opteron balancing of procs issue did nothing for me.
Any help would be appreciated!
