Going again on the 31st (3/31/07)

Didn't we already pinpoint that it was your Power Supply?

Thanks for the good info Maleficus, and the cool fact Coyote.
helped a lot.

Just two more questions and I'll stop buggin' you.

-When installing a new CPU and Mobo, do you have to reinstall...

Well, I'm getting ready to finally build my very own system next month, and I'm in dier need of some help.
I need to know some definitions and also I need to find what will work with what.

So...

I use CPU-Z to find out every little detail about my CPU, and SpeedFan to monitor and control the temps of my CPU, Hdd's, and other components.
Also, I use SysMetrix to see just how hard my CPU is...

Yea, 250w is a little low for today's standard.
Even though your not running anything too special, you still need a little more wattage.
This could definatly be the reason your system chokes on...

You know, I'm not really sure why it is.
In my case, I had quite a large system and a crappy PSU that was just cutting the minimum wattage I needed (400), so it was kind of understandable.
What are...

Cool.
It'll be interesting to see which it is.

You may have a PSU issue there.
This use to happen when I had the PSU that came with my premod.
If I left it off for a long time then tried to boot, it would get to POST then shutdown. I figured...

You'll be fine.

Yes.
This case is designed for good airflow, so however you end up modding it, make sure you dont disrupt the current. good luck!

You can also use EL wire. LINK

Probably the best stuff for lighting up eches in plexi-glass.
Just line it around all sides of your glass and the light will reflect directly off you etch.

Yes, and please watch out for that devilish ESD (electro-static discharge)
When holding chips of any sort, try not to touch any of the soldering points or anything like that.

-But when it really...

Thanks for all the usefull info guys.
its really helping

But I'm still confused with where you save the information.

-Can it only be discs or hdd's? (external or internal)
-How does FAT32 and...

hey guys,

I was just about to to post a new thread concerning this topic before I discovered someone had the same problem.
I also need to know how to backup files. I've looked in my system tools...

Yea, but theres millions of those.
This was the only one that I could find that actualy had green LEDs.

Besides,
If you dont like it......mod it!

I've had this fan controller from Vantec for about a month now and I'm still having trouble believing what a deal I got on it.

Yea, I like that cable managment settup too.
I Wonder how much that thing weighs...

man...
I forgot how to make a restore point.
can someone direct me?

update:

Got It!

Nice,
thanks for the info.
I asked this question because I've used windex before and it left my whole side panel with an overall water streak effect. Also, I didn't know what type of material to...

What's the best way to clean plexi glass? (if there is one...)

lol.
thanks

I want to paint the interior of my case (you know, the boring soft gray metal)
to match the exterior. My question is, will this effect anything?
I'm mostly concerned with the motherboard, seeing...
