Hi Nev, it is a custom made job that I picked up second hand. It came with a hard drive in it with Vista Business Edition on it. I swapped it out and got rid. I replaced it with the HDD from my old dual core computer running Windows 7 Ultimate (as I didn't want to lose all of my installed programmes). It is an Hitachi Deskstar 80GB drive (7200 rpm). There are no motherboard disks, but the Asrock website has some downloads. Hope this helps :-) Dave

Hi, I have reduced it to one 4gig stick, but it's still the same. Is there any way I can update the motherboard drivers or bios so that I am using the correct drivers? I don't want to have to reinstall everything on my hard drive as this will take me weeks! Thanks Dave

Hi Nev, it's Windows 7 Ultimate 32 bit! Is that the problem? Can I install a 64 bit version over the top without losing everything on my hard drive? Cheers Dave

Hi guys, I am new to the forum, but wondered if anybody could help. I have recently bought a PC with an Asrock Alivenf6gvsta Motherboard and AMD Phenom Quad core processor. I switched the hard drive from my other PC into this one and it seems to be working, however it is very slow. It had 2 Gig of Ram in it, so I upgraded and now have 10 Gig.( 1x2Gig in slot 1 and 2x4 Gig in slots 3 & 4) Slot 2 won't recognise any memory! The 10 Gig is recognised in the Bios, but not in the Windows System Tab. The machine is so slow it's painful, and the extra RAM does not appear to have made any difference at all! Any advice would be gratefully recived. Thanks Dave
