My CPU has been acting up lately, on a Dell Inspiron 6400, more than usual. It gets really hot and my computer then proceeds to slow down with the fan going full tilt. I notice it usually happens when I'm watching videos online streaming, so much so that I can't get through an episode of...

Hey all. I just put together a new system and installed an AMD Phenom II x4 995 (3.2Ghz). This is my first AMD chip and a significant upgrade from my old Pentium D but how hot should the chip run? I've got an ASUS motherboard for it and I'm running PC Probe II and the CPU temp seems to jump...

Hi, I have this little problem. When I started my computer yesterday it was awfully slow for some reason, but when I wanted to play a game it gave me the blue screen. This said that is was dumping the physical memory. When it was done my computer shut down by itself and tried to reboot, but...

I have four "upgrade stickers" for Windows 7 that I received when I bought Vista 64 Ultimate earlier this year. Unfortunately I did not install the stickers to Window 7 stickers to the various computers (or put them on the case sides and used the same case so they are all mixed up now that I...

A lot of good information was covered in this thread: Link Removed but it still didn't solve my problem for my board (plus the original post was really old so opened a new topic) I have a MSI k9n2 Diamond motherboard with the latest BIOS (v2.4) but my system continues to run after a shutdown...

Hey everyone, while I'm using my PC it works great, nothing wrong, no bugs, no crashes, nothing. When I go to bed, after about 20 minutes of being idle, I hear my fans spin up, and the computer reboots, like if it's losing power. It always gives this error in the viewer. The computer has...

My CPU fan is constantly working extra hard. I observed the CPU usage in System Monitor and if I'm completely idle it's around 0-5% but the moment I start to do something it jumps to the 20-30% range and frequently peaks to higher percentages. My computer information is in the link at my...

Just wanted to say I am a fan of the new themes included with the RC. Those backgrounds are so crazy.
