This problem is impossible to diagnose unless we know the specs of your rig including the power supply brand name and watts.

Check the temps and voltages in the Bios and post them, 12v, 5v, 3.3v and the CPU and Mb temps.

firem4n · 01-31-2009, 03:22 PM

My ps has a lcd screed on the back with some reading:
+5v:4.91 +12v:11.8 +3.3v:3.2 o/p 170ish

-12v:12.5 +12v2:11.9 5vsb:5 let me check bios...

**wrench97** · 01-31-2009, 03:32 PM

11.8v while in spec is a little low for a brand new psu.

firem4n · 01-31-2009, 03:36 PM

okay okay after some search the volts are in...
Bios power readings:
12v:12.160v

5v:4.945v

3.3v:3.216v

Vcore:1.312v

Cpu Temp:50'c/120/f

Mb Temp:39'c/102'f

firem4n · 01-31-2009, 03:37 PM

know of anything i could do to fix it?

**vladimirb** · 01-31-2009, 03:41 PM

Try with better PSU... if you can borrow from a friend that would be awesome...

Also, check this thread:

Power Supply Information and Selection

If you do need to buy a new PSU after all, this thread could be very helpful...

Hope this will help you mate and I hope you will play WOW as anyone else =)

firem4n · 01-31-2009, 03:42 PM

firem4n · 01-31-2009, 03:46 PM

processor(5.9)
memory(5.9)
hard disk(5.9)

**vladimirb** · 01-31-2009, 03:46 PM

Yeah, it could be... I am not 100% sure.... That's why I told you to borrow from a friend more powerful one and check how you PC will handle with it...
This way we will know if it is PSU or maybe something else...

Did you install graphic card drivers correctly???
graphic score should not be this low with your graphic card, because with even an integrated graphic card you should get at least 2,9 score...

firem4n · 01-31-2009, 03:50 PM

and when i refresh... it warns me that it will take a few minutes and the screen will flash...and it shuts down again.

seems to shut down to the flashing screen alot
dus that mean anything to you pros?

lol im gonna cry

firem4n · 01-31-2009, 03:52 PM

in performance info it says it detects new hardware and says to refresh.

**vladimirb** · 01-31-2009, 03:54 PM

Go to Device Manager and check if you have any yellow question marks or exclamation points next to hardware devices...

Hold Windows button and while holding hit 'R' button...
Type DEVMGMT.MSC and hit Enter...

**wrench97** · 01-31-2009, 03:55 PM

50c seems a little warm for the cpu AMD's run warmer then Intel's but 50c?
Check the device manager do you see any yellow question marks?

Edit
Your reading my mind Vladimirb

You need to refresh Windows Experience Index...
But this is not help us with your current problem...

Start a few applications as well as WOW and every 5-10 minutes check current temperature...
