bad drivers, not enough power (shitty power supply), overheating, corrupt windows installation, etc.
man thts the problem.....i've reformatted atleast 20 times within the last 2 months.....changed my power supply 2 times...had a 250w b4, now using a 350w.......i am sure theres no prob with windows...i've tried xp sp1, sp2, crazy xp, nemesis, rev02.

Yeah. Why blame the CPU? I don't think it'll be any different with a P4.
You need to pinpoint the real problem.
What about drivers?Originally Posted by suhaib
not once did you mention checking into the thermal issueOriginally Posted by suhaib
its worth a look
and if you think installing ME is gonna slove anything.....well.....
you know what? go ahead, its your hair you'll be pulling out
you deserve bad advice for hi-jacking my thread....
so go ahead with teh P4 too, why not?
ask anyone in here, AMD pwns intel at gaming

You need to quit guessing what the problem is and make a concerted effort to isolate it.Originally Posted by suhaib
Any decent PC repair shop should be able to run hardware scans (QuickTech, etc.) and eliminate the variables.
Simply formatting/reinstalling over and over again has obviously gotten you nowhere, so quit screwing around.

some suggestions...
check the plug and the power cord,
and if they had a surge suppressor,if they like to play games during storms
perhaps they omitted that they always pull the
power cord out of the wall baseboard socket because it is too much
trouble to bend over and remove it properly
the office chair rolls over the cord only 4x a day
or worse yet ,someone opened the hood, to see if they
could see what was wrong and why they could not finish their game.
it is the small things that usually drive us mad
no, the cpu is fried, this was sorted already, read the threadOriginally Posted by kazaa2002
