Graphics gfx card diagnostics

yea should be fine

 

k it happend again in cs:s, that make all my games so far

ima run 3dmark now, then ima jumper my cmos and see if that does it

 

ok it ran great for the 1st 3 test then it played them again the whole thing was choopy like at 1 fps

 

I AM GONA FKING KILL THIS MOBO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!>.<!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

it put another divice on irq 16 !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

right now im really pissed cause i spent allot of time and money into this pc and it doesnt work

 

You got any addin cards? Try disabling serial, paralell, floppy and sound in bios, see if that helps...

 

well done for hangin in there highlander m8 im sure youll help him in the end

 

ok i can do that,

also let me say a few things...when i unplug the die drives and the fans, it will still freeze but about 90% of the time it will unfrezze and go back to normal...if i give it a minut or 2. during this time i heard the psu fans rev up a lil i also heard a errrm low pitch sound(im sry i cant really describle it)

also my dad had this idea:

sicne it tends to frezze right after or near when it loading stuff, such as when it does in ffxi and css-hl2. he says maybe i dont have enough ram...due to all the setting are the highest. so i was thinking should we try turnng them all the way down and see if it happens...
note: the other card was a low end 1 so all the setting where kinda low on the games

EDIT: adin's = 1 pci linksys wireless card


my dad is getting me a multi metter tommarow

btw...sry for like flaming my mobo back there, its been a Looooooooooong day....
thanks for sticking with me

 

Ok, you dont get any hdd activity when the games lag or freeze do you?

 

shouldnt mbm tell you the volts.

(mbm = MotherBoard Monitor)

I wouldnt have thought it would have been thought lack of ram. Does sound like it could be a power problem though.

 

ok im getting my multi metter in soon today in like a hour or so

ok about the hdd activite give me a sec and ill see

when i get the multimeter ill go over what u said and post volts

 

ok 1st off ima clean up my hdd

all this stuff has cause some major fraging im my hdd

ima also run a fdisk thing

 

Yea but its carp, quite often wrong

A badly fragged hdd along with a variable sized pagefile could be a problem too...

 

om memtest it says i have all 512MB

but in the results its like

cashed 512M
RsvdMem: 276M

does that mean im only getting half of my 512!!!!!!!!

wouldnt you think that reformating the hdd would fix the page file...btw i just ran disk check and defraged it still is happaning

if u need me to get a vidio of it and send it to u my aim is javaboy389

msn is accola@gmail.com

i will be making a short vidio of what is happaning to it and such later if u or any 1 else that might be helping me needs it

i just got the multi metter but there are so many option what to i set it on????
im a multimeter noob

(thers like a dial with load of settings)
ok we have:
ACV:
500V
200V

DCA:
200mA
20mA
2mA

some reall odd symbol that looks like a arrow with a line infront of it

DCV:
500V
200V
20V
2V

OHM:2M
200K
20K
2K
200

you probly arredy said what to put it on im just listing all the settings

h/o ima look back at the old post after i post this

 

Use 20v
reserved mem is usually the amount set aside for memtest, sure it wasnt k rather than mb...?

 

DCV:
20V

 

rams fine

no errors in like 7 tests

i didnt do the oother 3 cause it was taking to long to "pass"
if needed ill let it fun over night to get the last few in


ok im doing the meter now, i hope i dont die from electic shock (jk)

ill post readings in a sec

 

ok im guessing just the on buttong and the psu to test no mobo cause i cant pull the atx connector off wehn its on

ok...i have it on DCV 20v and i put the black pin in the molex, do i put the red 1 in the atx at the same time

cause with just the black probe in the molex im not getting anything

 

ok i used both and i got

yellow- black = -11.80
black -black = -.01
black -red = -5.17

hope i did it right

opps my bad- each molex red this when i put the black 1 in and put the red 1 on a nutral pice on metal

TYPO-EDIT: YELLO: -11.80
black: 0.01
black: 0.00
red: -5.16

 

Hmm doesn't seem too bad, but get a program that can save your voltages to a log file, then play a game and go back and see what happened to the voltage. Looks to me like the PSU is crapping out under the load.

 

im testing load live
