Freezing problem with my computer, random hiccups... - 2007/03/12 14:58
Hi everybody, I'm new here and I wondered if you could help me on that freezing issue... My computer started to freeze since last week. It seems to happen randomly. I thought it was the ram but nope so... Here is my Everest report.
Computer Specifications...
- AMD Athlon XP 2600+ (1.9GHz) Processor
- ASUS A7V8X-X VIA VT8377 Apollo KT400 Mainboard
- NVIDIA GeForce 6600 256MB AGP Graphics Card
- Western Digital WD102AA 100GB IDE Hard Disk
- Memorex CD-Rom CD-Maxx52 52x Optical Drive
- Pioneer DVD-RW DVR-110 Optical Drive
- VIA AC'97 Enhanced Audio Controller
- LG StudioWorks 776M 17" CRT Monitor
- Microsoft Windows XP Pro incl. SP2
I changed the ram this weekend and added thermal grease to the CPU so I still don't know where this comes from. I added a file generated by RivaTuner that looked weird to me especially the memory frequencies...
Specific NVIDIA Display Information...
Graphics core : NV43 revision A4 (8pp,3vp)
Hardwired ID : 0141 (ROM strapped to 0141)
Memory bus : 64-bit
Memory type : DDR (RAM configuration 07)
Memory amount : 262144KB
Core clock : 351.000MHz
Memory clock : 0.003MHz (0.006MHz effective)
Reference clock : 27.000MHz
HW masked units : none
HSI bridge : BR02 PCIE-to-AGP
I just wanted to add the different temperatures of my computer. So the CPU is at about 60°C, the GPU at about 40°C and finally the motherboard reports about 30°C. I've been told that the CPU was too hot... Do I have to add more thermal grease? I'm using Zalman thermal grease by the way.
Okay, I added thermal grease to the CPU and cleaned up the heat ink and the fan yesterday. The temperature dropped by 20°C. At first the problem seemed to be gone. I managed to use my computer for an hour or two without any freeze. But when I tried this afternoon the freeze issue was back every 2 minutes. So still no idea?
