Well, i finally got my rig up (one and a half years later, after waiting for 4 months for case to arrive also ), but the graphics wasn't working, so i've had to sen the card (9700pro) back for RMA.
Whilst waiting, i found an old 2 or 4 meg, i think, PCI card to use just for installing windows and setting up ready to use.
So i'm setting it up, go to try and install NAV2003...system hang. No response. So i hard boot, check temps (fine), turn off and check card&cable seatings (fine).
So i think, OK, i'll copy some files over from some CD-R's to my HDD. So i install partitionmagic....no problem. Make partition, scan disks...fine.
Start copying some files over....system hang. several times. Temps are fine, seatings are fine...
So, i dunno what it could be. I'm working on it in the lounge so i'll have another look tomorrow, but i formatted b4 going 2 room now. (running XP pro).
The only things i can think of is to take out the cable which connects the sound card to DVD-ROM or maybe it's a software conflict.... I'm wondering if it's the DVD-ROM... any ideas?
