Here are the specs of my comp .
Intel p4 3.06 Mhz
MSI Mobo 915P/G Combo
XFX GeForce 6600 256 MB
160 GB SATA Hard Drive
512 DDR 2 RAM
Win2k Professional
Onbaord sound is being used.
LG DVD writer combo etc.
LG 17 inch Studioworks Monitor
A brief history of the computer
I bought it less than 2 months ago . Initial issues included SMP getting toasted ( probably due to the voltage problems in India ) and no sound. Both were resolved . THen I noticed the temperature being way too high . CPU temperature was averaging 70 degrees celsius . At the point the computer was crashing alot . I assumed its due to the temperature . Thus I got a new fan installed + a new 450 W SMP for the computer . I also purchased an APC 500 W UPS . The temperature certainly came down to the mid 50's which I think is acceptable ( Right ? ).
Remaining Problems
The computer is crashing alot . Usually it occurs when I click on any button , be it dial or a sign in. It occurs suddenly and the screen goes blank and the CPU emits beeps signalling a reboot.I disabled automatically rstart in the Startup and Recovery settings but the computer doesnt give any blue screen errors . I think its probably faulty RAM or the OS . Any ideas?
The second problem is very peculiar . THe computer starts propery goes past the loading screen etc and the desktop opens with the taskbar getting setup , all the desktop icons coming on screen etc , etc . Heres the catch - the computer locks up IF I dont move my mouse prior to it being totally readly .If I move my mouse , everything boots up normally and I use it ( until the next crash ) . If I dont , the computer completely locks up with the mouse and keyboard rendered dead .
I'd appreciate it if anyone could give me some good ideas on how to resolve this problem.
Regards.
