OK, I'm coming to my wits end here with this machine, never in my 15 yrs of building comps have I ever had such a hard time.
When either playing vids, or playing games, like E.T. or Advanced Warfighter it will run for a bit then pooof the comp will do a restart, no warnings nothing , no pop ups, no messages upon restart other then yahoo didn't close properly.running NFS underground 2 will result in the game just shutting off, so I'm left at it being a graphics problem.
I have swapped out every component of this PC except for the CPU, that is all that is left
My setup now is the following,
Asus P5W DH Delux
Conroe Intel Core 2 Duo 6300 1.86mhz
OCZ 1gig gold DDR2 800mhz 6400
Seagate ST3200820AS (200.0GB)
2 Radeon X1300 Pro ddr2 256 meg in crossfire setup
Cooler Master / Hyper 48, w/ 120mm fan
2 120mm cooling fans w/ Antec case,
Antec 550 watt, 120mm fan, power supply,
Windows Xp Pro media center 2005
Yes I have set up that windows doesn't restart automatically,
Like I said , all parts have been swapped out except for the CPU
other then the CPU I have almost all the parts to build a new machine, and that is frustrating, a lot of money has been sunk into this, way too much then what it is worth, it as well is not a heat issue either,
other then the Intel chipset all other parts are running well within specs
CPU 22C
Core 0 28C
Core 1 29C
System 25C
HDD 31C
Intel Chipset, 94C
Any help and all help is much appreciated
Thanks
Mike
