This is a long one. Please sit comfortably!
I have a new build computer which is one month old. The spec is as follows;
KN1-SLi Lite motherboard
PNY GeForce 7600GT 256mb PCIe
2gb DDR 400 Ram
350gb SATA hard drive
AMD Athlon 3800mhz dual core CPU
600w Arctic PSU
DVD RW
CD RW
3 1/2 floppy
Windows XP Home SP1
The problem is that it crashes back to bootup when there is a reasonably high load like FS2004 or a USB file transfer to my backup device. The strange thing is that this only happens when the computer has been running for 15-20 minutes. I have monitored the temperature which is cool and the voltages are stable so it is definately NOT a voltage or heat problem.
I have all the latest drivers and have flashed the BIOS to the latest version. I have had it running with Ntune installed and uninstalled.
Here is the strange thing. Windows reports 2gb Ram but when I go into Ntune to see the RAM spec, it reports two sticks at 512mb in dimm's 0 and 1 and two sticks at 256mb in 2 and 3. What's this all about?
The other odd thing is that I have tried to install Sandra Lite but it won't run.
The whole computer is behaving strangely and not consistantly.
Any idea's???
