not that this is your problem, but when you install the OS, only have the drive connected, that you want the OS installed to! XP for some unknown reason, will write info to each and every drive connected, and if any of these drives get moved or removed, the OS will not load:(

Please read the rules and add this other system to your sig until you get this resolved so we don't get confused.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Err retest metest how long? Have you tried useing good memory in you sig on it instead of the corsair stuff? How about that PSU isnt it on the junk list.

 

Google that PSu and you will come up with a bunch of people having problems with their computers.

 

 

Do you mean this PSU?

Sorry about the major confusion this is my friends pc i built 6 months ago!!! been stable up till xmas prime 95 1 stick of memory no errors for 4 hours prime the second stick of memory for 4 seconds windows crashes and locks up!!

rma'ed mem with corsair also this is not a cheapo psu i have scoped the rails and they are stable even under load

and the posts on the google search is a jeanteck 350 watt trying to run an sli rig

alough i am still getting the occaisional BSOD with the good ram!!

i havnt tryed my good memory in this system because i am 300miles away from my pc (wife would kill me if i left her for a week with no ebay!!)

unfortunatly im in deepest darkest wales with no pc shops around and no matter how i try lavabread sheep and daffodills will not fit in the orange slots :sweat:

i am 99% sure this is ram related i would have expected a memory ~BSOD ~ but whats getting to me it keeps comming up with irq lesthan/not equal :drool:

 

i am running 200mhz @ 3-4-4-8 2t @2.6v / 2.7v corsair twinx 4000 pro they should run 50mhz+ faster at tighter settings!!
