Yea... its weird. first off, my system specs.
Athlon XP 2600+ barton
DFI Infinity NF ultra
1x512 mb corsair xmspc3200xlpt
Ati Radeon 9000 128 mb
Antec Truepower 380
Whole helluva lot of needless fans.
this built is a temp one. to tide me over untill 939 prices, 90nm athlon 64 and pci express hits the athlon 64 market. I baught the memory because i wanted tight ddr 400 that had the flexability to run ddr 500. i asusme that amd will not jump ship to ddr 2 immediately and we will still see ddr boards with pci express.
in any event... this machine is actully running stock right now. 166x11.5. stock voltage, stock spd memory timings 2-2-2-11 at 166 and the gpu is also stock... the psu is a good one and the windows install i have pressently, I think, is ok.
soooooo I get my pc up and running, and after like a day. it just up and locks up.... its not getting too hot... 45º on stock cooling with all my case fans on low, my cpu fan on high *craptacular fan*
Ill go into ffxi and play for HOURS. log out. go to bed. set up some torrents, go to work, come home, play ff or even just surf the web and bang, it will up and freeze for no reason.. no load or anything. somtimes in ffxi, my monitor just goes black and my computer dies.. have to shut it off, boots right up just fine.
so uhhh. i dont know what to blame this on really. everything is running stock and should not have issues. come to think of it, this didnt start happening untill i installed the corsair memory... i have it set to 2.7 volts.. but its sooooo... weird. my last micron pc 2700 256 meg didnt do this. is there a chance its ram related? i would be pretty dissappointed.
i didnt reset the cmos for the new ram, but i did go into the bios and make all the changes.
