I was expecting somebody could help me with this issue I have. I recently
asembled a new PC with the following items:
-Gigabyte GA 7NNXP Motherboard
-Amd Athlon XP 2600+
-Markvision PC 3200 256 Mb Single Side (8x32Mb) DDR
-Jaton 3D Force FX 5600, Ge-Force FX 5600 128 Mb Onboard, 270(325)/550MHz
-Maxtor 40 gb 7200 rpm Hdd
-Axis power supply 350 W
And some others pieces which lack of importance on the matter. Now, the problem is
that when I run any game (3D) after a while the whole system hangs up
(No sound, frozen image). Besides, the power light(its not a led but a blue light bulb)
varies constantly the intensity of the light it emits but i have checked the voltages
of the connectors and the atx and atx12V whit a multimeter and by software and they all seem be
all right besides i have tested all with other 2 power supplies and nothing. I also have tested
another DDR thinking that it could be and nothing again, I have tested the processor with benchmarks
and encoding movies and it seem to be ok, I also have Checked the temperatures of everything
thinking that somethig may get overheated but I got good readings. Now only rest to check the
Videocard and the MB, but I dont really think this is a problem of the videocard but I dont know
either if this kind of problem can be caused by a problem on the motherboard, so if somebody knows
what is wrong with my PC (Piece of Crap?) Ill be very grateful... please?...
