bose301s Posted July 12, 2005 Posted July 12, 2005 Ok, just to try it I switched to the 510-2 Fixed aka. 623-2 BIOS and am running the memory in the recommended yellow slots now. Will run Memtest later but I'm sure it will pass. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

bose301s Posted July 13, 2005 Posted July 13, 2005 Well, I'm trying the system without the nVidia IDE drivers to see if that alleviates the problem, it's too early to tell now because I've only been using ot for a little while without them.

bose301s Posted July 13, 2005 Posted July 13, 2005 don't know if it solved the problem but it made my system slow as hell so i reinstalled the 6.53 IDE drivers but have NCQ disabled as that has caused problems for me in the past. Hopefully all will go well now. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
bose301s Posted July 13, 2005 Posted July 13, 2005 i still have no clue what is going on. it hasnt frozen but the hard drive seemed to be grinding earlier today, but no errors on the powermax diags from Maxtor. Could this just be the instability that I read about in the reviews of the DFI boards at HardOCP? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
dobbs Posted July 13, 2005 Posted July 13, 2005 My hard drive grinds a lot too, even with a permanent swapfile. I am not sure what this is symptomatic of since I kill all unneeded process and generally run a very tight, clean rig. But you're not alone.

bose301s Posted July 13, 2005 Posted July 13, 2005 Well, reinstalled windows and still skips in winamp. It doesnt skip in anything else like iTunes or WMP though, maybe its just a fluke. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
