Hey everyone,

I tried searching for the answer to this but it's really hard to word it for search engines so I don't find a lot of relevant searches.

Well, here's my concern.

I want to eventually buy a 24'' monitor, but I would like to use my 19 inch as well (more real estate the better, right ...

Altema

Full Load gets me about 36C

Voltage in bios is about
3.3 - 3.24
5.0 - 5.08
12 - 11. 84
-12 - -11.95
1.20 - 1.15

Altema

It runs better than with two sticks, but the problem of automatic shutdowns persists.

I have not updated the bios yet, but the current version is the one with that memory fix.

Altema

My computer now boots up, but I still have the original problem of automatic shut downs

.

I think I didnt push hard enough on the ram and thats why the computer didnt load, I think...

EDIT: With two sticks of ram, it shuts off with no warning alot, so I took that stick out again.

Altema

The beeps don't sound any different. They are all pretty much beeeeeeeeep beeeeeeeep beeeeeeeee and never stop. Is this still a ram related issue?

EDIT: Not too sure about the beeping. When you say its beeeeeep and beep, can you really tell the diff easily? If I really pay attention to the beeps ...

Altema

The beeps are about 2 seconds long. I'm not sure if that qualifies as long or short.

I have a CHAINTECH VNF4 Ultra ATX AMD Motherboard. Im running AwardBios. I searched for it and alot of sites give conflicting info. One site says Awardbios depends on who makes the board, and others give a general guideline as to what beeps equate to what problem. I just emailed chaintech about the ...

Altema

I previously posted about my problem here and in the software forum. I figured the problem had to be a hardware issue, and I thought I solved it.

The first thing I did was take out one stick of ram and my computer suddenly stopped shutting off so frequently. The problem still continued, but less ...

Altema

Incase anyone is reading this thread for a solution of their own. I think my problem was solved by taking out a piece of ram to test which of my two sticks were malfunctioning. I took out one stick, and the computer doesnt crash. When I put that stick back in, my computer failed to even boot up, so ...

. I hate having to highlight a page and going to the right and clicking that x!

Altema

Solution found, I think. Someone recommended that I take out a stick of ram and see how that works, and when I took one out my computer doesnt crash. I tried to put it back in again, and this time my computer wouldnt even boot. I would just hear BEEP BEEP BEEP and nothing, so I assumed it was the ram.

Altema

I use the following:

IEview - for those pesky pages that won't load in firefox.

SessionSaver - Saves the websites that I was viewing when I close firefox

Tab x - adds an x to the tabs so I can close them

Smoothwheel - set how fast the scroll wheel goes down a page.

Altema

I would not be able to see the mobo because it is usually in the area of my computer desk that blocks the sides and the back. I can hit the power button and it will come right back on. The temps are low, but airflow is kinda bad because of the design of my desk (there is only a little hole at the ...

Altema

Yeah. I will trust the bios.

Heat was the first thing I ruled out because my comp always runs at about 30-36C (even under full load)

Thanks for you replies YoS

Altema

I got

3.3 - 3.24
5.0 - 5.08
12 - 11. 84
-12 - -11.95
1.20 - 1.15

Judging from what you said, closer is better D:.

I guess its not the PSU =\

Altema

I'm trying to figure out why my computer automatically shuts down (shuts down as if you pulled the plug and without errors or blue screns of death). I surfed numerous sites that pointed at numerous causes. I tried to rule out each one slowly by doing virus scans, hard drive checks, and memtest86 ...

Altema

YoS> Nope. After shutting off, the only difference I see is that it does a harddrive check.

mnosteele52> I have done everything you said, but the problem is still there.

Here is my hijack log

Altema

Is there anything that could be causing this?

Because if this is a hardware issue, formatting wouldnt do much, would it?

I'm just trying to figure out some cause because if all the viruses & spyware are gone, and the problem persists, what else would be causing my computer to just shut off?

Altema

Yeah

. I even keep up two anti virus running all the time and they are always updated

.

Altema

Hello,

Recently (as Tuesday or Wednesday ), my computer has been shutting itself off. There is no warning about the computer requiring a reboot (like that one virus that did that), and there are no errors. My computer will just shut off. I turn it back on and it does a harddrive check, and ...

No idea if my father can get a better job. He works in a supermarket. You see many of those people whenever you go grocery shopping (aka old age and still working at a supermarket).

My mom will be getting a job, but in the mean time, the question is should we freeze it until we get another job or ...

Altema

Don't give up the 401K. My goodness...no matter how you slice the pie, that's a 100 percent return or better on your dads investment the first year alone.

Add to that the tax break he gets from it.

I don't see how he can afford to give that up at all.

I don't quite understand the ...

Altema

We deliver to supermarkets, and we have tried to find workers to do this job. We have a hard time finding replacement workers. Thats why in 12 years of this job, we have gone on vacation maybe twice. Even if we were to find a worker, that worker would destroy the value of this route. The bread route ...

Altema

This job is really hard to find people to do. No one wants to work 12 am to 11 am. When selling this route, we got like 20 phone calls and all of them did not want to work as soon as they heard the working times. Those who actually came out to see how the job was never called again afterwards. None ...

Altema

The business is a bread franchise and hiring someone is too unreliable and would yield very little income. We work off comission(sp) and workers don't work very well if they dont get some as well. Plus the job is physically demanding. It's not easy. When my mom puts on shirts, she is in pain because ...

Altema

Grats!

Lol my sister would have been named Leilani, but my mom didnt like it. I guess it was good that she wasn't named that because my sister hates that name D:. I like it though!

Altema

She is taking a vacation, but I forgot to mention it is also to research other business opportunities such as real estate. She also wants to get some medicinal help, since it is cheaper elsewhere. I forgot to mention the vacation, isnt really a vacation.

I am planning to search for another job ...

Altema

My dad insisted that I asked you guys

. Despite your answer, he still doesnt want to do it =P.

Altema

My mom wants a break from working for a couple of months and the money received from the business can suffice for that time. (My mom has worked backbreaking labor 12+ hours a day for the last 12 years so no one objects to a deserved vacation). But life doesnt go as we plan. She may be unemployed for ...

Altema

Okay, I am writing this because my family is in an argument, and they want other opinions.

My family income will be falling tremendously because my mom will be selling her business. This leaves my father's income to be our only source of income. He does not make a high amount of money, and we will ...

Altema

Yeah I mean the economic difference. I know in a pure capitalistic economy, you cant eliminate it, but our economy is not pure. Despite not being pure, I don't think you can eliminate it, but I do think you can lessen it. If thats what you meant when you said "no real way to close the gap," I shall ...

Altema

Awww they changed it or it's a different site from the one I saw. I could hit the red in level 3, but nothing would happen. In this version, if I get to the red in level 3, the picture pops up

.

Altema

By "It" do you mean reduction of the gap? I am just unclear by what you mean x_x.

Altema

Oh, I was pondering something as I finished my essay. The essay talks about who is responsible, but I am curious as to how you lessen the gap between the rich and the poor (more specifically in the areas hit by katrina)? Some sites that I have read suggest a total reform of our economic system or ...

Altema

DH - That was good mind food. Got me thinking. Although, I don't see the connection between what you said and the goal of my essay.

In the end, I think I came up with this answer:

Government (public sector) is responsible for lessening the income gap because one of the functions of government is ...

Altema

Whose responsibility is it to help lessen the divide between the rich and poor in that region (the areas hit by katrina) or is it an unavoidable byproduct of the American economy.

I consider is is MY responsibility...and I also consider that it is YOUR responsibility and I also consider that it ...

Altema

I agree.

I am trying to side with one side, but I feel that both sides play a part in the income divide and our economy causes an income divide as well. While our economy is not pure capitalism, it has some traits of it and capitalism can cause an income gap. At the same time the government can ...

Altema

Wow. I kinda thought this thread would turn out like this :( .

Just for the record:

I don't really post stuff asking for help unless I have already done some research about the topic and hit nothing but road blocks. I have taken microeconomics, macroeconomics, and an intro to business course, and ...

Altema

Sadly, I did not pay much attention to the Hurricane Katrina other than looking at the images and donating money. The bad part about not paying attention is that I now have to write an essay on that topic.

The topic is basically

Whose responsibility is it to help lessen the divide between the ...

Altema

Thank you for the replies. I'll tell my aunt to just call them
