Computer will not power on for the life of me

I'll try that, but I'm pretty sure I did that with both sticks. Could it be possible that both are bad?

Computer will not power on for the life of me

I've tried that too, and I've tried the psu on two other computers and it powers them up. I'm not sure what else is left to check.

3 out of 4 computers work with home network, why won't the 4th?

It is added to the workgroup, not a wireless network. I disabled windows firewall, and it is allowed on my software firewall. I'm not sure how to go about pinging the other computers or the router, how do I go about this? Thanks

3 out of 4 computers work with home network, why won't the 4th?

I have 4 computers networked here at home. All running Win XP Pro. 3 of them have no problem accessing each other, sharing the files and printer. One cannot use the printer, share anything, or be accessed by any of the other 3. Does anyone know why this is? How can I solve this problem...

Amd Athlon 64 3700+ San Diego

I have my 3700+ running at 2.75 prime stable @ 1.5v with an AC freezer 64 pro. Idle temps are 30, and it loads at 40. I got into windows at over 2.8, but failed prime, so I may still mess around with it some more.

AMD64 3200+ still a good cpu for gaming?

I'm very happy with my 3200+ right now. It's at 2.66 paired with a 7900gt and it definately gets the job done. For the price and o/c ability, it's still a great chip.

7900gt fan won't quiet down

The vf900 is definately what Im thinking of getting. But it's not out for purchase yet in canada, at least I can't find it. NCIX.com has it for pre-order only. I guess I'll deal with this annoying fan for now. Thanks for the help

Fit and Performance of Arctic Cooling Pro 64 and Asus A8N-E

I actually have the fan on the left side of the board and blows towards my ram, my mistake. I may change it so the fan blows towards the rear, but my temps are pretty good right now.

Fit and Performance of Arctic Cooling Pro 64 and Asus A8N-E

I have the freezer pro on an Asus A8N-E and it fits fine. I have it facing the rear blowing towards the exhaust fan. My 3200+ venice oc'd to 2.5 idles at 31 degrees and under full load it's 41-43 degrees I'm pretty happy with it for the price I paid and ease of installation.

anyone got an A8N with a new gen video card?

I have a 7800gt that I put an accelero x1 on today. I put it on an Asus A8N-E with a zalman nb47j, and I ended up having to cut off four of the metal pieces from the zalman so the card would fit.

Hey guys I was wondering what a good program was to stress my gpu, and also what to use to monitor temps while doing so. I've tried using 3DMark06 while running nTune to see my gpu temps, but everytime I alt+tab from 3Dmark to see the temps, it stops the testing. What can I used to...

I'm idling at 33, and full load is at 47 with a 3200+ venice at 2.5ghz 1.525vcore. I'm not sure if the AS5 has been completely burnt in. The computer is only two weeks old.

I read somewhere on here that if you apply AS5 with the silencer, there is a gap somewhere between the unit and the card. Any truth to that?

Creative G500 or Logitech Z-5500?

I just got the Z-5500's for x-mas and all I can say is WOW!!! I'm amazed with these speakers! I don't think you'll be disapointed if you decide to get them. I tried Dolby Digital DVD's aswell and DVD's with dts, and it's simply amazing!
