This is the thread, (http://www.daniweb.com/techtalkforums/thread7918.html) sorry bout that. And yeah I used to/still do on occasion download and play games (hey I am a little sick of paying $50 for...

Indeed! Buyer beware! What started as a software problem looked like it turned into a hardware problem! I bought the case because it was $40 with a 420 watt power supply, as for the brand of the case...

LOL! exactly all my friends use to laugh, when I had a dell...

Well just a half an hour ago, my computer turned off. There was a popping sound and a sulferish smell. I freaked out. I smelled and found out it was coming from my power supply. Obviously when I...

Well that sounds similar to the problem I had. You can read my thread and see if suggestions anyone had there might help, although I do not think it was my registry.

Quick question, be honest...do...

I would appear the restarting has stopped since I did a reinstall. Funny this is after I reienstalled it restarted once or twice (right after) and it restarted once during the install itself! Yikes....

Well said, cat! Your right however, my girlfriend would never let me drop another $500 down on a video card in the same year! However my Radeon has been having some harware problems. Since it is...

Oh yeah for those whose care, Doom 3 comes out August 4th, not far off. Here are the specs to Run Doom 3 at the three different levels, Low - Everything off, Medium - About half on, High - Most....

Okay here it goes. I suppose this is more of an opinion question than a request for technical support, but if you look at it different I am asking for technical help.

I currently have a Radeon...

Well it sounds like Jeff got his problem sovled, but this has made for some good reading! Hey even techies can have some fun right?

Thanks for clearing that up! Now if only I could fix my other problem in my other post....Thanks for your help catweazle and killer_typo!

Thanks I'll take your advice, I am not sure what harm it can do. I always thought defaults were just safe bests. I do not why it would default the SDRAM so low. Thanks!

Thanks Catweazle. I have an intel D865perl Motherboard and an intel Pentium 4 2.6 Hyper threading processor. Well my front side bus is 800Mhz. My bios defaults my SDRAM at 266 Mhz. However it can go...

Okay that helps. So I guess I am cool with the AGP size. However I just read something. The bios states, SDRAM Frequency is defaulted 266, but can go up to 400. However I do not have SDRAM, I have...

Whoops one more newbie question. My SDRAM Frequency is defaulted at 266MHz. But it can go up to 400Mhz. Should I? I mean my Actual DDR is 400MHz. Does my SDRAM and my actual DDR Ram have anything in...

Hello, I am troubleshooting some problems on my PC. When going through my bios I noticed that the AGP aperture size was set to 64mb. I have a Radeon 9800 XT which has 256mb. My question is. Does this...

And here is the last one. All three of these errors came at once after the restart. Now I just had my card checked by ATI and it came back clean. nothing wrong fully functional. So it is a little...

Here is an interesting one. This one reports a CPU problem. Again according to all my temperature devices everything is running cool. Processor is currently 40c. System Zone 1 - 36c.System Zone 2 -...

Thanks again for all these responses. I had updated my bios, a while back. Taking your advice I reset it. However the random restarting still occurs.

My Fan Power Supply though...how do I check...

no ideas eh? I agree. This is a pretty crappy problem!

One more thing. Pictured below this is a screenshot of ALL of my system specs. If you need anything else, please let me know. Unfortunatly, the pic was too big to upload here (421KB). So I zipped it...

Thanks for the responses thus far. I tired all of them and here is my report:

Well I have a few heat monitoring devices. They all report about 40C for my CPU. I also got rid of my stock fan and...

Hello Everyone I am new to this site (as obviously stated above).
