    Custome Build
    « on: March 06, 2012, 08:34:44 AM »
    I just fixed the PSU an put a replacement board into this unit.  I recovered all the information that needed saved.  I go to reinstall the OS but, for some reason after it installs the windows files it restarts, when you enter the user name an network settings.  Windows 2K

    Bad RAM, bad HDD, overheating?

    How's your dog doing, Ryuk?

      I had cleaned off the old paste on the heatsink, reapplied new.  The harddrive seemed to work fine connected to another machine.  I did have issues with POSTing.  I'll try differnt RAM tommorow.

      Its not my dog, His name is Harvest ><

      You called your dog Harvest?

      Why can't you diagnose your RAM with memtest86?

          Im at my campus

          O.K, I am worried about your dog not getting enough exercise if you're at campus all day. Do you have a dog walker?

            I tested the memory, no errors.  I tried the memory that I bought with the board that was in there.  I tried a differnt harddrive.  I tried a differnt OS.  I thought that it was the reset switch I made.  It is still doing this for some reason

            What kind of "reset switch" did you make ?
