Lo all, I'm posting a darn annoying problem, which im to sure its to do with the hardware in me computer.
Basicaly, I'm a fairly knowledgable person about computers, knowing if i don't run defrags, check your system for adware, blah blah... it's gonna run slower and screw up faster... and if im completely wrong there i'll go insane because I do run these sort of programs!
Ever since I bought new Hardware for my computer, motherboard, RAM, Graphics Card etc, it screws up within mere months of installing XP! In this case, I would estimate... 5 months by now. And I even researched a fair bit, to ensure each piece of hardware would work alright with each other when I brought them!
I mean, I swear this had happened to me forever, when I had my Voodoo, my AMD K-6 II 500 processor... and it doesn't stop, no matter what patches I have downloaded, or utilities to aid my system :(
Listing some problems I have at the moment: When lots of RAM is being consumed (I believe) and changed frequently, it crashes out and restarts (When Modding for Morrowind that is mostly!), happens alot with Vice City too!
I get frequent explorer crashes, only a moment ago it happened cause I was surfing Google Search Results! I even got an explorer crash 3 days are installing XP Pro, is that normal!?
And now.. which appears to be attacking everyone, is this piece of baka Bridge.exe trying to break through my Zone Alarm Firewall! And now is busting up, and claims a Bridge.dll can't be found on startups!
Basicaly, in my history of using my personal computer, it has screwed up... and was hoping someone could possibly point out that piece of hardware... or something I could be missing out that is SCREWING it all up ^_^
.... Okie... hardware are as follows:
Processor: AMD 2400+ (running 2007mhz atm... and usualy around 60 Celcius >_<)
Motherboard: Gigabyte GA-7VA-C
RAM: 1 Stick of 512DDR RAM, fairly new like the mobo.
Graphics Card: Geforce 4 FX5600 256MB (V9560TD)
Sound Card: Sound Blaster Pro 128... I need a new one!
Monitor: I'm getting a new one VERY soon, the connection buggered up and sometimes the blue colour dissapears, lol!
I have 2 Hard drives, 2 year old Maxtor 20GB, and a very new Samsung 80GB... I couldn't resist the offer ~_~
I have 1 CD-RW and 1 DVD Drive present in my computer, I have never seen any issues yet related too them... unlikely me thinks anyway ^_^
I hope I'm not sounding like a ... I can't say that... uh... an evil person asking and presenting like this >_< Because I no mean to be... It just becomes frustrating when you spend so much and gain so little!
Thanks for your help people... and hope to hear good news... >_<
And for crying out loud!!!!!! How do you log into this place, so I don't have to write this ALL AGAIN when I try to post? Although I stuck it on remember my login now, I ain't counting on it to do so if ya know what I mean ~_~ They should make a login screen...
Renamon, If You Lose I'm Going To Be Very Vexed...
