Cheap ba.....

I think I learned my lesson on buying cheap barebones systems. I got 2 systems which I thought had xp 1900's in them, well, bios is saying they're xp 2000's which isn't too bad of a deal Except for the fact that they overheat and lock up before it even detects the hard drive I put in one. They have the cheesiest HSF's I think I have ever seen, the HSF on my p1 pushes more air. I put a floor fan in front of it with the cover off and it manages to tell me that there is no operating system, just that dropped it 4 degrees. Oh well, time to spend some money on a better cooling system.

Go with an slk-800 paired with a thermaltake smartfan 2...its a great combo. good luck with the computer.

yea that does suck... at least you have a better processor but get that 800 and see if it will detect an os with a lesser temp, and while your waiting make sure the heatsink is seated right.
