[bizketman101]

oh my yes! Ill be getting your color shortly here too! almost identical then! Do you use the on-board audio?

[bizketman101]

issue! When ill be playing a game for maybe 30 or so mins, the new rig will randomly reboot. Is this a heating issue?? when it reboots i jump into bios and the proc is about 53* C at that point.

could be .....see what happens with the new hsf

[bizketman101]

figured it out! it was the PSU, to much power on a rail or something? I just put my 5770 on its own, and it hasnt restarted yet.

haha. no no no no.. I had my HD, 2 dvds, 2 fans, and the video card on one cord from the PSU, i think that was drawing to much power, i switched it up and haven't had the issue since!

So apparently my build wasn't as easy as I hoped. I overclocked my ram to 1333mhz just to see how well it ran earlier today and I thought it was alright. So i decided to fire up Grid and play a few laps, I became distracted and left my pc for maybe 5 mins while the game was running and it froze. So i put the ram back to default and ran Prime95 just to see if it would work properly. After about 5 mins, my cpu hit 60 windows froze, and my system speaker started a loud beep. What could this be? Heat? Bad memory? IF im just on windows listening to music, net, and chat it runs without a hick-up, even when ram was @1333mhz. Help!!

[stormrosson]

you shoyld go into advanced mem settings and manually set the timings

[bizketman101]

every things at stock. what should i change it to exactly? im a n00b

[bizketman101]

while i adjusted it to 9 9 9 20; 7 7 7 20; 5 5 5 15. after the last one my computer wouldnt boot, so i cleared my cmos. After that win 7 BSOD occurred. memorydump. Then it resstarted and worked, but now its saying win7 is not genuine and i need to activate. Of course all this would happen to me.

edit* Fixed the windows issue, but it still freezes/ restarts while gaming/prime95 or anything thats "stressful" Either it reboots, or my monitor starts showing color patters and the sound is going "dadadadadadadadadadada" (i hope that jibberish makes sense) please help?

have you taken a look at your services? what was in the dmp file? might look at the flags W7 throws on problems also look at your GPU settings, make sure their set back to stock

[bizketman101]

It's all back to stock and this still happens. where can i find the dmp file?
