Well installed the Corsair 430CX PSU and the XFX ATI Redeon HD 5670 graphic card. Everything went well as far as the install. Using Catalyst Controll center Version 11.3.
Now having two issues. When I reboot or start up the PC during the start the hard drive turns on then off 13 times, then after that the DVD drive light comes on and the PC boots up with no problems. Second issue is the PC seems to be using about 1 Gig of ram constantly. Without even having any program running. The hard drive spins alot without doing anything. Any thoughts on why this is going on?
Oh and in the Catalysy Control Center under Info>Hardware for the memory it says 1791 MB. I know its a 1 Gig card but is it also sharing the mainboards ram? In CPU-Z its only showing 1024 MB under memory>size.
