I need some help I recently purchase a new motherboard, hard drive, ram and video card and built my own computer. The problem is the computer comes on and we where able to load windows XP. Now after 5-10 min the computer shuts it self down and reboots. Here are the components inside the computer:
MB ASUS A8V K8T800PRO 939 motherboard
VGA EVGA GF6600 mother board
CPU AMD/A64 3700 + 2.2 G 939 1 M R
MEM 512Mx/PTR D400 PSD1G400KH R
HD 300G/sT 7K 16M ATA 100 Seagate
DVD Burner ASUS/DRW
When we first start the computer we where able to load Windows XP home edition with no problem. Then we connect to the internet and start downloading and installing drivers and this is when we start having the problem of the computer shutting down every 10 min. We have switch out the Ram with other Ram in other computer and had the same problem. I also double checked all the connections still having the problem.
Also the hard drive is reading just 130GB when it's 300 GB hard drive? How do we get the HD to recognize the 300 GB?
I would really appreciate any help some can give me in correcting this problem. Thanks
