sounds like the video card is overheating.

try a different power supply. if that doesn't help, verify that the motherboard is not shorting to the case.

try running chkdsk /r on the drive.

the green light indicates that there is power to the motherboard. it does not indicate, however, that the power is clean or adequate enough to properly power the system. it just means that there's...

this does not sound like a problem with the cmos battery. a few ideas:
- bad capacitors on the motherboard or in the power supply
- bad ram
- failing power supply

i doubt the memory has failed. your description is consistent with the symptoms of a failing hard drive. i have to agree with eeyore: replacing the hard drive would be a good decision. even if it...

it sounds like the hard drive is failing.

check the motherboard for bad capacitors.

thermal pads are usually affixed to heatsinks. i do not know of any other way to obtain them. cheap thermal compound (usually the white stuff) will harden over time. arctic silver, in my experience,...

it looks like both boards support your cpu (the motherboard must specifically support coppermine cpus). personally, i'd go for the tusl2-c unless ddr support is necessary. either board would probably...

is this the same model motherboard that is currently in your computer? if it is, do not buy it. there were a lot of motherboard manufacturers who inadvertently used bad capacitors in production a few...

backup your data before you use any utility to edit the partitions on the hard drive.

a few things to try: clear the cmos, reseat all hardware (including the cpu), remove unnecessary hardware - especially that dvd writer that won't open. if the problem persists, verify that the...

the symptoms you describe generally indicate that something is shorting. it could be the motherboard shorting to the case or an unseated piece of hardware (most likely cause if this is a new build or...

the thermaltake would be a good choice, and if you decide to upgrade the system in the near future you should be able to use it.
have you disabled restart on system failure? right-click on my...
