It wouldnt hurt to run Memtest on the new memory sticks but the fact that we've tried two sets of memory is making me lean towards something being set wrong In BIOS or a bad mobo.

Re: Uncle monkey\'s Big Quad Adventure
I'm building another machine for a friend. Parts should be in this week. Same as mine except with the xms ram a different case a lite on cd drive and 1 video card. You were saying try the ram in the black slots. well I'm thinking of ordering 2 more gigs. Should I mix the dominator with xms or put the dominator in his computer and go all xms. Dominator had a price drop 181 bucks plus $40.00 mail in rebate. 2 gigs $141.00. aLL dominator?

6969...Video test results
DJ I hit Crooks and Liars and the video played fine in my browser, I tried both the Quicktime format and the Windows Media Format and they played just fine.
I'm using I.E.7 though if memory serves me your using Firefox correct? Can you see if the problem is browser related? Try Safari for Windows or I.E.7 maybe? I did not down load the videos however. I just played them in the browser at the default settings. hopefully that helps some what.

Sorry for not being clear. When I watch certain videos,looks like windows media,from a website I visit the screen has a miniscule flicker and then a logo appear on the upper right hand corner of the screen that says..."Powered by ASUS SPLENDID" and then it disappears. Its a logo appearance thing. But one time when I was done watching a video from the site my computer crashed to a FULL green screen. I had to reboot. I haven't had a problem sinse that day though. I have loctaed "Computer management" but I don't see "error reporting" anywhere. My computer CPU temps are running at 57C 59C 52C 55C while on the internet and it doesn't change when I watch a video. It is a bit hot in here so maybe the temps would go down a few notches in the night. I might just have a hot case. I don't know. I'm not gonna worry about the temps anymore. Ok. Thats all for now. Thanks again. DJ Edit: When I just opened up my front door it must have allowed some air to flow into my apartment and my temps change too... 54C 57C 50C 52C . I just have an absolutely horrid apartment I guess. It traps hot air like a $#%@^&*^%#^ ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Specs: Digi Mbox 2 Pro factory 7.3.1cs4 XP Home SP2 Intel Core 2 QUAD q6600 LGA775 2.40 GHz B3 ASUS P5K Deluxe WiFi AP (P35) Crucial Ballistix 2Gb (2 x 1 Gb) PC2 8500 1066 MGz 240 pin DDR2 Corsair HX520 W PSU ASUS VGA EAX1600PRO SILENT 256M Video Card X2 SEAGATE Barracuda 250 Gb 7200 SATA Zalman CNPS9500 Heatsink Samsung SATA DVD Burner with lightscribe Link to my CASE~~~~> 120MM fan front and 120MM fan back http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16811147033

Re: Best Core 2 Series Desktops-Results and Specs
Sunburst, Sorry to leave you hangin. Had to take a night off from playing with my computer and pay attention to my wife. She is very patient considering the time and money I have been spending on my new hobby.
So I will have to crack the box back open tonight and get the specs on the hard drives for you. I'll see if I can figure out the firewire card to althogh I am not using it for ProTools so I don't think it is effecting my performance. Then again I didn't think that it mattered what interface I was using either until I was corrected. I am surprised how well this seems to be working considering I did NOTHING but plug the stuff in. I did update the BIOS to 0404 but I didn't make any changes or tweaks at all. Everything is running as default. This is a pretty loud machine though. I have the power settings to "always on" and the fans seem to go full blast all the time. I used to leave my machines on all the time and let them go into standby but this one gets shut down when I am not using it becuase the fans. What do you guys do with your machines? Only on when your using it? oh yea and check out the custom voice mail message I got done from Vocalvoodoo. Its freakin hilarious. Vocalvoodoo

I have my fans turned down in BIOS (Q-FAN)as low as they will go. You can try that but check your temps till your sure its cool You might see the biggest benefit from swapping out your current fans for some quiet ones from NEXUS or Noctua. I just ordered some Noctuas to test and will post my results on the top post. I have a list of quiet stuff going on I'm currently running a Zalman CPNS9700 and Nexus fans, its pretty quiet. I'm debating trying a Thermalright Ultra120 but they are kinda expensive! Best cooler out there right now so they say BTW you should be able to get the HDD info from the Hardware tab in the System Proporties menu. It should list the drives with a manufacturers prefix E.G. WDC=Western Digital ST= Seagate tecnology. ETC Just let me know what the abreivation is and I'll figure it out. I thought the board had onboard FW, I checked Newegg and ASUS and see it doesn't have onboard FW so we know the answer to that now Pretty soon they will drop that price to 99.00 and that will be cool can you tell I want a entry leval 600.00 Quad system I'm glad the built went easy for you, easiest one I have ever done also. People seem to have problems getting the memory figured out and I'm still working on a way of wording how to set up memory timings that eliminates error. PT wants the power scheme to be "Always On" every other machine I have drops into standby after 10-15 minutes and hibernates after 30-45. From a "Green" standpoint it would be nice if PT was "Smart" enough to let the machine know if it was busy or done with something like a BTD and then shut down.
