yeah i did when i was chopping and changing hard drives about, changed the cable as well

update: installed a new 750w PSU and the failing drivers are still an issue =(

so far tonights gaming has only had 1 Graphic Card error (blank screen, driver fail, lose of textures) so thats an improvment

I checked all my Bios options and didn see anything about a 32 bit transfer, would it have a diff name? ill try the PSU swap out when i get a chance but its a pretty heavy duty 1000wat PSU.

BIOS says CPU 39~41c, fan speed 1700~1800 rpm. I did the clean out with a can of air and the dust was immence! Sadly i couldn get my CPU fan off, it felt stuck to the CPU/Mobo. I couldn see any other screws etc attaching it but it wouldn come away.

Its reported by HWMonitor and im not sure how to tell if the fan is at full speed or not =/

"Have you changed the hard drive data cable?" I have done so 3-4 times now. I ran Memtest a few days ago and it came back clean, iv also swapped in and out every stick of ram in every combo i can muster. Im starting to think its heat related or CPU related. My CPU idles at 80c .. not f, c. Gonna see if i can get a chance to buy some Comp Air and Gel tomorrow n muck about with it.

Spec: Intel Core Quad CPU 2.40GHz 500gb Sata HD USB 500gb External HD 4 gb of ram Creative Xfi Sound card Gigabyte GA-N650SLI-DS4 Mobo AMD 6800 1gb series Win 7 Home Pre SP1 64bit Ok this is a strange one, I have a reasonable amount of experience with PCs etc as I have built a few in my time. My pc, the above mentioned, was running perfectly till i started getting random Graphics Drivers failing on me (http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2665946 this helped but doesnt solve the issue). So I got a new card (the one mentioned above) but the issues remained. After a re-format or so I started getting a new error where by random and seemingly unrelated progs would fail to respond 10-15secs after opening. Vent, Skype, Mumble, Diablo 3 are all effected by this annoyance. Windows cant find a fix for it nor a reason for it. Frustrated at this I spent 3 days running tests. I removed the Gra card and ran the mobo one then a spare i had, I changed the sound card to the mobo one and back again, I changed ram sticks in and out with all combos of what I had to hand, I took the whole thing to bits to clean it. Iv reformated a few times since this error started + changed HD twice and updated my Bios. Issues still remains. LASTLY a fun new error has started in the last week or so. Imagine a pause button for your pc and someone will randomly start pressing it every 1-2 secs. This cuts everything off and effects everything on the pc (mouse, sound, interface etc etc) to the point where i NEED to restart Any input would save whats left of my hair. Cheers
