My P4 2.8 is going mad.
My prometeia compresser has given up but the looks of things. But im also experiencing CPU trouble.
The cpu seems to work, and seems not too.
I took it round to a shop to test it and make sure it wasnt another piece of hardware.
It failed like i suspected. But i wasnt 100% convinded, suprise suprise i was correct. nothing wrong. But it seems to go in 3 stages.
1st i see cpu speed and fails.
2nd i see as far as the amount of ram fails
3rd time she boots.
temperature is 48degs using stock heat sink.
Any ideas anyone? Intel has being contacted as my supplier.
How do i test a defective cpu that will stop stable for no more then 5minutes?
Cheers anyone
