Huato Posted April 11, 2006 Share Posted April 11, 2006 Ok, I think I found the problem for sure now. At first I thought it was memory, then the tests on individual sticks came back clear, and a subsequent test with all the DIMMS in place did as well. That said, the game runs fine as long as I am not in Org too long or part of a 40 man raid. It crashed three times on me in Ony's lair last night after going days without crashing. On the last crash, I went into my BIOS and looked at the PC health stats...my power supply was fluctuating more than I had ever seen before on all the voltage rails, and I actually watched the +5v rail drop to 0.00V on several occassions. The power supply is a 500 Watt supply, but is over 2 years old (which shouldn't make a difference), but it is obviously going bad. So...it appears to be power supply related, and a new one has been ordered and on the way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Huato Posted April 17, 2006 Author Share Posted April 17, 2006 Received power supply, installed it, and so far everything looks MUCH better, and the computer appears to be more stable than before too Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Huato Posted April 18, 2006 Author Share Posted April 18, 2006 Yep, looks like it is holding up very well now! But Blizzard on the other hand...I think they picked my old ps out of the trash and put it in the AD server. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
