Dropping like a rock

[eaglescouter]

My RAC is dropping, and soon will be dropping really fast.

Q6600 #1: Came home to no video output. Changed PCI-Express video card with another of same make/model, no joy. Changed ram and placed new ram in different slot, no joy. Removed PCI-Express video card, inserted PCI video card, no joy. Each replacement included a power removal and bios reset. Asus mobo.

Q6600 #2: Video frozen, so I rebooted. 9.0 error on the LED mobo panel. Bios reset did not resolve the problem. Abit mobo.

:screwy:

Well that sucks!

The IP35 Pro is usually a good board.

Error 9.0 on that board usually means that the bios or bios settings are corrupted. It can however also mean that the O/C on that board is too high currently. The recommended method to fix that is to uplug the computer, and pull out the battery for a day or two. After a couple of days put the battery back in and plug the computer back in.

Your other computer sounds like a PSU problem, but I wasnt sure if you tried that...

the deep gnome.

That's what I'd try next, a PSU replacement.

Still seems very strange - especially when the PCI card didn't work ... :eek:

Mine is dropping too! But I don't have any computers down! Has anyone else noticed they aren't pulling in as much RAC lately? I have noticed like a 500 point differance. My T7300 used to have a RAC of 2.3k now only 1.5k What the H#LL.
