    System Crashes = Psu Problems

    in Hardware Hangout

    Posted

    ummm.. things like that happened to me but it in fact was my GeForce4 ti4200 .. had to disable SBA(sideband addressing) and fast writes.. but it probably is ur psu

    Doggie has a good point. I have a PNY Ti4600 and it wants to see things set up just right in the BIOS. You might give that a check, or not... One does not want to let go of a good reason to upgrade... :)

    There is a lot of information on the internet about power supples that you may want to look at. ** This ** might be a good place to start. Remember the power supply is the heart of your system, without it the whole thing is just a money pit........

    :)

    ** Here ** is the spec sheet for the 4300. Looking at this I see that you can only get 512MB PC133 on your system. If you have 256 now and it is a single stick you are in luck, you can just buy on more and you are good to go. However if you have two 128 MB sticks to make the 256 then you are going to have to decide on buying one 256 MB stick and have 384MB and have one 128 left over or buy two 256MB sticks for 512MB and have two 128MB left over. With the price of PC133 being so low at this time if you can afford it and are planing on keeping you PC for awhile I would get the two 256MB for 512MB total........

    Well I would have to agree with you, the power supply is needing of being increased. But as well I would look at increasing the memory to 512 Mb. My sound card is an Audigy and some of the same thing happened but went away when I increased the memory to 512Mb. As far as the power supply I would get one that will meet my needs in the future as well. I have two 550W supplies as well as a couple of 300w in smaller PC's. The 300 watt supplies are in systems that have on board audio and only one HDD.

    So more memory and I would shoot for at least a 400W PS.........

    New Sig's Done!

    don't really like it the colors all contrast against each other and the image appears too harsh and busy but each to their own i guess

    Well for some reason every time I do graphics it seems to come out LOUD! I am trying to think softer and making some progress. As well I am keeping an eye on Sigs like yours to see if I can figure out how it is done. I am an old man (50) and have to change my way of seeing color and blending. Really never paid any attention to it before..........
