I just bought a new computer and i built some of it with different companies and other stuff like that.. but i have a radeon 9800 pro and a 350 watts power suplly, 1 gig ram and a good MB and CPU. My computer crashes almost every day saying that i am not using any GH or something like that. Is it bc my power supply isnt good enough or something else? PLZ help me!! thanks!
i have a AMD Sempron internet ready multimedia PC comes with AMD sempron XP 2200, 128 DDr memory(not sure what this is.. if it is RAM i have 1 gig in there), 40 gig hard drive motherboard integrated graphics(but i took that out and put a better one in but i dont know what it is.. a friend helped build my computer) usb ports and the rest. Then i got a 9800 pro in there with a 350 watts power supply.. i also have 1 gig of ram. anything else?
Did you disable your onboard graphics chip in the BIOS? Do you have a power plug attached to that 9800 Pro? If you don't, you need to. What do you mean when you say that you took the integrated graphics out? I hope that you mean that you actually disabled it, which is a far cry from digging it out of your mobo.
i took my entire MB out and out a new one in. then my friend helped me disable the graphics in the MB and updated and installed and everything to my 9800 pro.
That is a little vague. Suppose your hardware is poorly installed, BIOS setup improperly configured, and your Windows installation is rotten - what can we do to help you in this forum? We require specific symptoms/errors and knowledge on your part to start to know where to begin. Lemme guess - your buddy doesn't know what's wrong and has been spending too much time on the problem (and he's guessing, too)? I suspect your problems, if he has setup the hardware properly, are OS related. Anyway, it goes like this: 1) build hardware 2) start system, setup BIOS 3) continue booting to DOS with floppy disk 4) establish basic system (hardware) stability 5) install Windows OS 6) confirm system stability All PC users, if they are confident 1-4 are okay, will often find themselves at step 5 if their PCs are not solid & reliable in day to day use. I have a coupla spare 40GB HDs around, so I can do a quick OS install with client's HD removed/disconnected. If system is fine, client's OS is rotten. You can fix your OS (keyword: ddp) LoL, how's it go again ddp? CCleaner; Spybot S&D; Lavasoft AdAware; AntiVirus; TrojanHunter; and (for tough cases) HijackThis! Anyway, challenging to repair messed-up Windows - easier to reinstall it. But only if you are good and solid through steps 1-4... Let us know how it works out. Maybe let somebody skilled take a look at it, if needed.
thanx for the help.. now i think it is my windows.. bc when my computer crashes it says windows has recived an error.. but where could i get windows by its self?
