Fan in PSU will spin. GPU fan will spin on very low. And CPU fan will sometimes spin on low, totally not spin or stutter indefinitely as if it wants to start spinning. HDD light will flash in rhytm will the fans. The speed of all these things are not constant, sometimes faster/slower. This will happen in hibernate or sleep mode and on both s1 and s3 bios power settings.
I've been clinging to old components after buying a new cpu and gpu. Here's the list:
Athlon II X2 250: Overclocked from 3.0 to 3.5
ATi HD 3870 Overclocked a bit
2x1 GB DDR2 667 (underclocked a bit, 1.8V is the voltage written on the sticks but the lowest setting in the bios is 1.9V)
3 ide pata HDDs, around 7 years old-two using ide to sata converters.
1 pata DVD drive
The psu is a 300W (I KNOW!) antec, also around 7 years old. Model SL300S
Funny thing is, I've finished some new demanding games (Metro 2033, Just Cause 2) without lockups.
