nice instructions, but he was not buildign a new pc...it quit on him while it was working. Something fried, it's not loose connections or anything. I was just trying to find out whether it's the cpu, the psu, or the motherboard.

Max_T

I had the exact same thing happen to me. Half a spin nada. It was my cpu(athlon 2800xp). I went through everything new mobo(msi kt6 delta), psu everything. Put in new chip walla. the old chip did the same to both boards, try a new chip. (reason for my cpu failing was a faulty h20 heat block,it leak...

hmm, interesting suggestions, but he wasnt building a new pc, his pc quit working in the middle fo a game. So it was turnign on before just fine. Maybe he should try a different PSU before changing the processor, but i don't have a spare one.

Max_T

don't really know the specs.. mobo is shuttle ak12 v3.0 (also knows as ak12a) or something like that. The cpu is AthlonXP 1600+. He's got one stick of memory, don't know which one. And some PSU, don't know the wattage. i was under the impression that if he cpu is dead the fans wouldn't spin. does so...

A friend of mine has a pc that quit on him while he was gaming. I thought maybe the PSU crapped out, but doesn't look like it. The light on the motherboard lights up, so the PSU seems to work. When i press the power button, the cpu, psu, and case fans all make half a spin, and then nothing happens. ...

Don't have d3 installed at the moment, but i play half life / counter strike in OGL, and i don't have any pauses or slowdowns. Also UT2004 demo works perfectly, i think it's D3D.

heh, kick@$$!

At officemax,

panasonic fax

very cheap, but pretty good.

has a 50$ rebate, and you could use a coupon.

I got myslef one for like 20 bucks over 6 months ago. It's still priced around that now. Check out office max online ads.

Max_T

They r not suspicious at all, plus i warned that you don't have to go through them if you don't want to. Whether it's worth 10$ or not is for everyone to decide for themselves.

Btw, you can get up to 25$ for trading in ut2003 online too, so the deal could have been even hotter, but is seems dead.

Max_T

what did i say about flaming?

Anyway, looks like the deal died shortly after i posted this...oh well, at least i got in :p

The virus u r talking about is not a boot-sector virus. I just cleaned a pc with that virus a few weeks ago. The minute you get on the internet, you get that virus. It's not reinfecting you from the boot sector, but it's reinfecting you when you are going online, b/c that RPC service vulnerability i...

i run winxp with AIW 9700 Pro, nothing has crashed on me in over a year (even under havy overclocking). I run Catalyst 4.1, and ut2004 demo works without any flows.

been playing it for awhile, i like it more than halo.

zs had other benefits over a2, besides 7 channels...if you need to buy one, get zs over a2.

Got my Ipaq h2215 today, this thing rox! It's soo tiny compared to my older Ipaq 3835. And it's very fast. I highly recommend it if you want a PPC and can afford it!

Max_T

I am not, lol...like i said, there aren't any issues with the games i play, so I don't really have to upgrade anymore.

Max_T

I like T3. I can recommend it, if you can find it cheap.

Max_T

lol, saw 'em earlier, i sort of stopped caring about drivers, since the games i play work perfect and fast. Don't really need to upgrade for now.
