Computer Freezes

Tuesday morning I discovered my computer had frozen overnight, which is an extremely extremely rare occurrence. I rebooted my computer, restarted uTorrent, and during one of my torrent re-checks my computer froze again. I repeated this a few times and realized it was freezing at exactly the...

nvlddmkm stopped responding ?

I wanted to chime in and and let people know that TDR issues are definitely not just nvidia chipset problems. I am running a Gigabyte 965P-DS3 rev 1 w/what was F5 iirc and now the latest F12 bios. I've had the TDR issue during both of these, so bios update didn't help. On top of this, I have a...

What is at fault?

Apparently, Gigabyte's DS3 is designed to do this when ram is not in the mobo. This must mean my ram wasn't seated properly even though I thought it was.

What is at fault?

Ya I don't think it is the PSU anymore either. I just threw in my 7900GTX and decided to actually test out how long it took for it to reboot and the results are 5/4 seconds it lasts and then 5/4 seconds to start again in these test conditions: 7900GTX, 3 fans or w/o 7900GTX and only 1 fan...

What is at fault?

I got everything from Newegg, so RMA'ing it won't be a problem. Thanks for the advice on shorting the power switch as it proved that the case was not at fault. I had all my fans spinning up and 'rebooting', but it obviously kept rebooting as the cpu fan never got started other than a really...

What is at fault?

So I got my new rig today and set it up then powered it up to just check everything is fine, since I am still waiting on my video card. What happened immediately was the computer started and then rebooted soon after (span of 5-10 seconds). Only one of the fans turned on regardless of if I only...

Looks like I have to cross post as the tech support forums aren't visited and are barely viewed.

What is at fault?

Ok here is another update. I found the psu w/o mobo trick and here are the results: 3 fans ran without a problem and proper speeds. Here are my specs that are relevant: Gigabyte DS3 E6600 TT Purepower 600W (Active model) P180B I'm convinced that it isn't a cpu issue as all the fans...

Viewsonic vx2035wm

The only reason to get a widescreen of the same resolution at a bigger monitor size is if you have eyesight problems and more money to burn. If you get a smaller of the same resolution you get a better pixel pitch.
