First, what virus/malware protection is installed?
You need to list your complete system specs along with what supply you installed.
Please read the info link in my sig and run the calculator, then add 30% to the total calculation.

Hi,

Follow what Speedster told you to do as a first step. Then, before you post back try SensorviewPro under my signature to double check those voltages. List those under there for another look at the voltages.

Either the program does not work with your unit, the sensor is faulty in your motherboard (no big deal), or there is something else wrong that we can look at with you finishing the items Speedster requested.

also i dont think the sensor is faulty there is a light on my CPU fan that suppose to be bright blue, the first 3 sec at start up it is, then dulls out and is barly visible, the windows loading screen loas for 3-5 min, and b4 showin the log in screen my monitor gets a No signal for 30 sec
after loggin in my firewall loads about another 3 min, feels like its runnign on low ram but i tested my ram already they are working

Leaptohell · 02-26-2007, 06:51 AM

ok now im lost,

i took this reading off my mom's computer, only used ot check email and work on

also a P4 2.8GHz

512 MB DDR ram

useing built in video socket on the motherboard
same for sound

CD/DVD-R drive

our computers are the same i mean the motherboard and cpu but i moved mine to a towercase, bought Video card and sound card, and betetr coolin fans as well as more ram, but that was like 2 years ago... now a week ago i bought a new PSU and replaced the one that came with the case

but her PSU is i think 300w dono realy
her computer runs fine, dont lagout like mine does -.-

now i dont know what the problem is

Hi,

My friend, that is one wierd situation for two boards to do that. In addition, her board is running quite a bit hotter than yours and if not working hard, maybe too hot.

How many programs or things do you have loading with startup? What anti-virus and firewall are you running? Might be you just need to disable some of those extra things that are running at startup. With the CPU fan, does it slow down when it dims? What do your other case fans do, stay the same or slow down.

ok the pic taken from the other computer was taken right on start up on her computer there are 34 proccesses running and ZoneAlarm Pro version: 7.0.302.000 full version

ok she has 1 Ultra 80mm Dual Ball Bearing Fan that is blowing out and directly before that is a foxconn cpu turbofan and the only fan bowing air in is the one on the PSU, its a HP stock nothing was changed with it

im runnign with a ZoneAlarm Security Suite version:7.0.302.000

on start up 29 processes and after i load Trillian and Opera and the sensor's veiw that makes 32

on my system i have 1 120mm Cooling Fan with Double Ball Bearing - Silent on the back blowing out, i have 1 80mm Cooling Fan with Double Ball Bearing - Silent in the lower front blowing in on the side i also have one of those and it so happend to blow directly on my video card with a stock fan on it but i took that off and replaced it with a Zalman VF900 wich ended up also being almost silent on my cpu i bought a Zalman LED CPU Cooler with a blue glow. not silent :(

yes my fans do slow down after the light dims, the 120 mm one if i stop it by hand it owunt start spinning untill i give it a lil push, the 80 mm ones start on there own again but with a struggle,

i tryed to open WoW earlier, i had it in window mode, and i had to make it small for it to stop lagging, so small i couldnt read the chat, it was using 100% of my cpu and 84% memory and for the 5 min i was in the game cpu temp went up by 4 and the rest of the sensors by 2-1

This might be a problem. You might have some "backround music" in play here.
If you are inclined so, try running the "first steps" shown above in red.
