Thanks for the replies guys, I think i solved the problem, btw i did a celan install of both w7 and ubuntu without using grub and both had teh same boot issues. So i then tried another graphics card which i know works 100% but the problem persisted...the last thing i could do is swap PSU from a...

Thanks for the replies guys, My main concern is the power draw of the fx-9370 and its impact on the vrm's even at stock...its like an overclocked fx-8350 (4.4ghz) meaning for that overclock most of the times one needs to increase voltage. The question regarding the fx-9370 which is: does it...

Hi all, I wondered if it is possible when i purchase an Asus X73SD-TY085V laptop. It comes with an 320gb hdd, with windows 7 installed. Thing is i don't like microsoft. I rather use linux ubuntu 12.04 LTS. Here is what i plan to do use clonezilla to make an image of the existing hdd with w7...

Thank you for your feedback, I'm hoping this is normal that they wont complain or you where just lucky lol. I'm kind of bugged when they force you to use an OS you dont want, to my knowledge nothing says in the warranty its forbidden to change an OS...and yet they might get pissed off...

Thanks for the reply, No i do not have the laptop yet next week i hope. The reason for swapping is this: If i use another hdd for linux and if i have issues which i cant resolve, and knowing that HP might not want to help since they will know i changed the hdd and changed the OS. So my...

Thank you for the reply. Yes it might void the warranty if i swap the hdd for linux. So thats why if i have issues il reinstall the original hdd that came with the laptop, i suppose this will come with a recovery cd so this should work with the original hdd even if i removed it. And then...

Hi all, I was wondering the hp laptop comes with the included hdd with W7 and the recovery cd. However i want to either: switch to a brand new hdd i suppose this will give me no problems right? And install linux on it. If for whatever reason i want to switch back to the original hdd with w7...

Ok i run Memtest originaly i would run it 8 hours. But in the end it was 12 hours. Pas:11. got zero errors not one thankfully. Next is Prime95 and 3Dmark. I know prime95 is uses to test stability of an overclocked cpu. Mine isnt overclocked is prime95 good to test my stock cpu stability?, i...

Hi all, Since i had bootup issues with my pc and its not solved yet. I tought its a good idea to test my ram (tripple channel) socket 1366 i use Mushkin 3 x 2gb. Should i test the ram all at once 3 x 2 gb in one go? And finish the 8 phases if i'm correct. If i do get errors it could be...

Thanks for all the help and reply's. So far i had no problems as of yet, it boots just fine with the trusted one sort beep. I've formatted the 500gb drive inside the windows installation. Before that i saw a little file on my 500gb hard drive with BOOT. something. Perhaps this was the culprit...

Thanks for the reply's. This is what i'm going to to first in order to see if the 500gb harddrive is the culprit. Reformat the harddrive as mentioned above not by windows vista itself, but when i install a clean vista choose option format and partition options. If that doesnt help il remove...

Thanks for the reply Optix, Exactly found a new problem could this be a hard drive problem (500gb). When i booted without the 500gb drive (disconnected) i had no issues. I played crysis for about 30min without issues, i browsed a bit and after 2 hours turned off the pc. Installed my 500gb...

I did not see any FF code i suppose you can see that on the motherboard itself (little screen also for cpu temp) while booting? Ok this is what i did to resolve the problem (wich it did not buy the way) I found it odd i had to boot from my 500gb harddrive whenever i switched off the power...

Thanks for the reply, "chip creep", those where my toughts also. I have to say its winter now and when i dont use my stove/heater (gas) to warm up my room its cold...So i start using my heater/stove. But are they not suppose to work in cold temps arround 15 - 18c? When i finally can use my pc...
