Programer1 Posted April 29, 2006 Posted April 29, 2006 Did another Prime torture test, In Place Large FTTs and the good news is that the computer locked up after 6 hours with 0 errors. I also ran Small FTT for 7 hours it didn't lock up. Will do more testing with In Place Large FTTs just to make sure Thanks... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Programer1 Posted April 30, 2006 Posted April 30, 2006 Hi, This is weird I ran the In Place large FTTs test again for 8 hours no lockups no errors or warnings... It seems like this computer locks up when it wants to! Thanks... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Programer1 Posted April 30, 2006 Posted April 30, 2006 Hi, Any ideas I'll get 3dmark06 by this week, by then is there any suggestions or tests that I can do... And for the memory timing if you're intersted it's a CL3 memory default setting no overclocking and I thin in says 3-3-3-8. Thanks...

Sharp Posted May 6, 2006 Posted May 6, 2006 Hello, Sorry for my absence. At this stage it must be the power supply. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikemcc Posted May 6, 2006 Posted May 6, 2006 Programer -- I don't know if this will help, but it wouldn't hurt to try the User Profile Hive Cleanup Service from Microsoft. I was practically pulling my hair out trying to find out why Windows would not shut down properly until I read this from Microsoft: http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details...&displaylang=en (If that hideously long link doesn't work, just google "User Profile Hive Cleanup Service" and the bulletin from MS should be the first hit.) Like I said, it wouldn't hurt to give this a try. It'll only take 10 minutes and if it doesn't work you can just get rid of it. It solved my problem. However, don't overlook the hardware issues mentioned above, though it does sound like you are looking into those things. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ISSA2000 Posted May 6, 2006 Posted May 6, 2006 Hi,My PC is in my sign., I've had this problem ever since I built my computer when I shutdown or restart it goes like this: 1- Saving Settings... 2- Window's Shuttingdown 3- Lockup But rarely it does shutdown probebly... I'm also runnin' into some kind of instability in this system (no overclocking) I'm thinking it's maybe the crapy RAM or the power supply (No EPS12V Just a 4-pin connecter in the middle) I just wnat to figure out where the problem is... Thanks in Advance -------------------------------------- test you memory (5 loops ) built in mem tester. after that (make sure your not using nvidia ide driver-update with the ms one(microsoft one) built in windows. test video with 5 loops of 3dmark 05 or 06 use prime or burn mmx to test cpu and math co processor (1 hour stress test) make sure no spyware (need internet to update) (spybot) + scan for virus (vet) some times some install software can be the trouble.. (a clean install of windows) with basic mb software install) it shutdown problem is gone - install programs one at the time, and test for problems (ie shutdown) on every install/+reboot :angel: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Programer1 Posted May 6, 2006 Posted May 6, 2006 Thanks for the reply Sharp...

Any way I'll try your link whats is it going to cost me? ten minutes... Thanks... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Renegade87 Posted May 6, 2006 Posted May 6, 2006 I'm thinking it's maybe the crapy RAM or the power supply (No EPS12V Just a 4-pin connecter in the middle) Hey Dude, You say your PSU has no 8 pin EPS12V connector and you're using the standard 4 pin right? It supposedly will work with this configuration in non-SLI mode. Where is it connected? According to the manual, it should be connected to pins 3,4,7,&8 (the four closest to the top of the mobo). See page 68 of the manual. It's outlined in red. This may be worth trying (if you haven't already) before upgrading PSU, RAM... Just a thought. Good luck.
