happy birthday

master7

So I'm not sure what happened. My computer suddenly wouldn't boot at all. No spinning fans, nothing. So I ordered a random 500wt Antec ( http://www.antec.com/us/productDetails.php?ProdID=27500 ) for my system: AMD Athlon64 3200+, Asus ATX board.

So I put it in, it started up. But then I realized ...

Does it make itself relatively known? i graduated high school almost 5 years ago and they have long taken off the some 80 boxes i had running there for a good couple years.

*eyes a few friends units....*

master7

I haven't been to a movie since Cloverfield...i need to get out more nowadays

master7

Start the night with Washington Apple shooters for me and my girl then keep it going with PBR and Sweetwater 420

first post in years. yay! battled addiction, lost my apartment, lost school, now working on gaining everything back with my girl who went through the same stuff as me.

master7

Yeah its the pushpin one.

master7

Would turning down the FSB help in any way? Can I even do that without damaging the CPU? If so, what values?

I'm just trying to think of ways to turn down the heat

master7

When it is set to AUTO, the temp is 90 deg C. Which isn't bueno

master7

I went in to change the CPU VCore through the BIOS, the lowest I could set it was 1.8 something. But when it was set to AUTO, it would set the VCore at 1.1 volts.

So when I changed it from auto to 1.8, it dramatically raised the CPU temp.
So i need to set it to 0.850 so it would drop, but the ...

master7

What should the voltage be set at?
It's this proc: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.a ... 6819115004

master7

I know! It's killing me. There's thermal paste, a side fan, and what looks to be a perfectly capable fan/heatsink.

The only thing I can think of trying is getting another PSU from my house and using it because I think the fan on it is more powerful.

master7

The previous problem I've been having with my friends computer is the cpu temp. It was around 101 deg C before. I reseated the heatsink and got it down to 90 C.

But this is of course way too hot still. I'm using the Stock Heatsink/fan combo that comes with a Core 2 Duo.
It's running @ 1700rpm. Is ...

master7

oh it nows will shutoff on its side too. I don't think that actually is the problem, I'm leaning towards it overheating

master7

I figure its the processor overheating. It is running idle @ 101 degrees CELSIUS!
According to this article:
http://www.tomshardware.com/2006/07/14/ ... page8.html
the temp shouldn't be higher than 45, even with the stock heatsink/fan.

Whats up?

master7

Just built my friends computer
Asus P4B-E motherboard
Intel Core 2 Duo @ 2.13ghz
500wt PSU

When I set the case rightside up, it will turn off within 2 minutes.
If the case is on its side it works.

I tried switching power supplies with my Antec 480wt psu, but it still does it.

I goto GA State, when I lived in the dorms my first year, we had a sweet connection. 10mbit dedicated per apartment, 6 people. It was nice

I live in Atlanta...it's not THAT bad

master7

Ummmm...so people should repress their views?
OK!

master7

It's the internet.

Is there software that will take a playlist, compare it to mp3s in a directory, and delete mp3s that aren't on the playlist?

If so, that would be just awesome.

master7

Woohoo!! I Live In This State!

master7

I live up in Atlanta (Buckhead). I hate the amount of construction nowadays. Forced to use MARTA to get around.

master7

the instances I installed on the high school computers about 2 years ago are still going at it. woowoo

master7

Kinda weird. I noticed something in my Run key in my registry and googled "lomocle.exe" and this thread was the only thing it found. woowoo

master7

lol you do know this thread is 5 years old?

master7

OK Fixed it...weird fix though.

I guess the newest NVidia drivers is what screwed up my ability to view mpeg/mpg/avi.

I deleted them and got the "latest" beta drivers dated March 2nd.

Fixed everything, including the .wmv bug thats been bugging me for months.
<3 everyone and thanks for the help!

If your cpu is slow, video card is older, or you have little ram or a ton of internet traffic, basicly something that takes up ram and cpu cycles. you could be having a severe playback problem. Did the video seem to run slow while you saw it? or does it play fine but the video just cuts out?

Did you try opening the options in windows media player and lowering the Video Acceleration function under the Preformance tab.

Worked for about 5 seconds before freezing. Thanks for the suggestion though.

I'll get Hijack this again and have it fix the above things.

Still freezes/cpu usage to 100%. With VLC I could still hear the audio, but video wouldn't show, and CPU went to 100% again.

but thanks for the suggestion, VLC seems like a really cool player.

master7

No viruses (no scanner, used http://housecall.trendmicro.com)
Spyware scanned/caught/deleted with Adaware/Spybot

Windows XP Pro SP1, upgraded

Would happen in Windows Media Player 9, as well as 10, and any other player I tried.

Any tips would be deeply appreciated.
