Tairyousatsujin Posted November 2, 2005 Posted November 2, 2005 Hi..... During the past month I've had my new comp I've finally found a good stable overclock. I can install windows without any interruptions. But the problems start after awhile. It becama obvious when i tried to installa WOW. The computer gradually froze to complete halt. I had stability issues in the beginning of this configuration, but upping the vcore solved any instability. OCCTs torture test ran for over 12 hours without any faults. Prime 95 for 24hr. And I recently reinstalled windows. But when I try to install a game, unpack rar archives or when I do something stressful, the computer grinds to a halt. Note, i try to install to a raptor, and when i first encounterd this problem there was an error on the disc. I have no real idea of what it can be.... maybe somone here has an idea........ faulty windows (duh) or something wrong with the hardware. will try to run WDCs drive repair tomorrow and see if this gets sorted out. tairyousatsujin Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
red930 Posted November 2, 2005 Posted November 2, 2005 Have you installed IDE controller software? That is where I would start. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
davidhammock200 Posted November 3, 2005 Posted November 3, 2005 Did you run memtest? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tairyousatsujin Posted November 3, 2005 Posted November 3, 2005 the thing is, the drive is on sata, and the chipset drivers are installed. In my setup there's 1 sata boot and 2 IDE storage...... On my boot I install my games too..... during this installation the computer freezes. And before i rteied to install windows i let memtest run for 24hrs to insure stability. Thanks for the answears guys Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boppo Posted November 3, 2005 Posted November 3, 2005 Did you install Windows at stock speed or OC'd? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
