Ok, I spilt pop on my keyboard so I hope you can still read this!
Ok, today,, I setup a computer for a client and it has the following setup,
Abit KR7A-RAID
AthlonXP 1600+ @ 1400MHz
512MB Crucial PC2100 DDR-Ram (256x2)
GeForce 2 Ti
Sound Blaster Audigy Platinum
2 Maxtors 40GB D740X 7200rpm ata133
16xdvd/20xcdr/rw
so forth
OK, the unit has a 300watt powersupply which I think is the problem! It has no brand on it other than specs of the powersupply!
The Problem's:
-First one, the computer will only randomly boot when I attempt to turn on the power, sometimes it works and sometimes it doesnt. OK, when I remove the sb audigy, the computer boots flawlessly. Or, if I remove a hard drive, it will also boot flawlessly. But, if I try to boot the computer with all installed, my chances are 50-50%.
Next, XP installs all the way but when the third time it loads, 'first windows boot' after fully installed, it will hang with a blue screen right away! Whats going on!
I thinking a 350watt enermax would solve this problem?
