Please log in for more thread options It seems the hardware of my pc is damaged again. Probably the motherboard. Sometimes the system crashes during a game. I cleaned the pc hoping that it would solve the problem but nope. There are some other symptoms: 1. Memory corruption/crashes. 2. The time runs a few seconds faster and then stops and then continues again in xp 64. 3. The time skips a second in memtest. Possible causes for damaged hardware: 1. Overheat in summer. 2. Short-circuit because of plastic stickers patching wholes which came loose. 3. Lightning strikes. 4. Maybe power surges because of stuck power button or switching on/off surround sound set. 5. Maybe just bad hardware not ment for heavy use, who knows ;) Anyway another dead motherboard is scarey... it's not dead yet... But it's definetly time to eradicate possiblity number one. So today or tomorrow I will go or phone to local pc shop to see if they have any good 90 mm rearcase fans... to increase airflow in pc casing. I like the beautifull graphics in cod4... but I would like to have a quiet/cool system in the future. And the chances are pretty high that my future pc will be a cool pc and a noiseless pc.. which will hopefully last as long as the 386's and 486's pc did ;) Bye, Skybuck. | ||||
