I've tried SP2 and SP3 as mentioned. Firefox isn't the problem it just causes it faster.
I've changed out all the components. The system is now sitting open with no case in a 65f room. It is not cooling related.... I think.
The PSU has not been tested. I have another sitting next to me to swap it out with though to verify it is not the PSU.
The components have all been "tested" by swapping them with replacements. None of it helping. As mentioned, I've also run the gambit of Prime...
Haven't yet but I'll see if I have one somewhere.
New note: I left the system running idle on the desktop (nothing other than system tray stuff running) and after 3 days it was all hung up as mentioned in the first post. Couldn't click any quick launch icons or anything on the desktop to...
I've now swapped the hard drive and still the same problem; meaning the only thing the same is the PSU. There's virtually no way the PSU is causing this. I'm completely lost. It is virtually a new PC.
Yes, totally different memory (from a DELL). I've looked at the voltages and they seem clean, no big changes under load either. The CPU runs less than 30c at load. Thanks.
As listed; I've also installed a completely bare XP SP2 and still had the same issues.
Yes, I've swapped out the RAM for other sticks; same problem.
I just finished swapping out the CPU for a Q6600, no dice. I can try the NIC but that *seems* terribly unlikely considering two...
That really doesn't fix the problem, there are other issues such as crashes I have noticed; FFX just seems to make other issues apparent. I don't believe it is directly related to FFX.
As stated; I've reinstalled windows about 8 times (fresh, format, install). Which would nuke any viri, but yes, I ran multiple scans as well.
Seatools found no problem with the drive, even with a long scan.
I will happily have any form of cookie desired delivered. :)
Alright folks, let's see if anyone else has some luck with this issue. I am at wit's end.
