Hey guys, I ran into a weird problem.
I replaced my NB fan with a passive heatsink, the zalman NB-47J. Everything was running fine at 265*9, mem 333, 1.55V. Max load temp: 45degrees C. This was prime stable for 6 hours ( I stopped the test myself)
The problem i Ran into was, when i was transfering massive loads of date from one disk to another. I was transfering around 100GB from one disk to another....it went ok for 8 minutes or so...till I got a system hang. I had to reset the computer, because it wasn't responding anymore. After my that, I was thinking about burning the data on DVD, because I had to store it anyway. So, I tried to burn one, but got another systemhang.., now I was kinda wondering what it was. So I had to reset for the 2nd time, and tried to transfer some data from one disk to another....guess what..same thing happens again. So what's wrong with that?
I was thinking maybe the NB isn't getting enough cooling or something? Cos eventhough i fitted the nb heatsink well, the heatsink is..euhm..movable...i mean..it doesn't sit on it very tight(ly?) The sink does get kinda hot though...
So do you guys think my problem is related to the (lack of) nb cooling?
(I have an A8N-SLi ndlx, with a 3000+ Winchester, 1 gig ocz 3500EB ram..550 sparkle ESP psu, euhm..what else is relevant? )
