NickNeedsANAme Posted March 16, 2006 Posted March 16, 2006 sooooo....i got a pretty nice rig. I wanted to see how i rated on some benchmarks, namely pcmark05. got it, ran it, everything worked great except for some little things. I got DNF (did not finish) for reading memory from my harddrive to my ram and the mock booting up. soooo my question is, why the hell don't i have hard drives? because i'm pretty sure i do...and i remember installing them, (2 raptors, 74's, RAID 0, SATA) anyone with some knowledge, taht'd be helpful :-) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fum Posted March 16, 2006 Posted March 16, 2006 Lot's of funky things can happen with an inadequate PSU. Your Aspire is junk. DO NOT BUY List. Get yourself another PSU, Recommended PSU's Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Burky Posted March 16, 2006 Posted March 16, 2006 True that. Anything which comes with a case is cheap and noisy usually. I read a review about an Aspire PSU the other day, and it turned out its maximum wattage was something like 150W below what was stated ( I think it was a 650W PSU which only did 500W), with awful efficiency and low current on the rails. Go and buy a good PSU now for $80+, regardless of whether or not that is your problem here. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
