Hi All,
I just built a PC for my son. Everything seemed to be working fine when I powered it up. I installed all the enclosed software. Life was good and I was a hero.......at least for a little while!!!!!
My son informed me this morning that the system crashed a few times last night while he was playing some online games. Now this morning he tells me the system crashes before the game starts..... I guess while loading. There are no error windows popping up to help me narrow down the problem . I did check the bios to look at the temps, if I'm reading this right, it had a temp of 44 degrees...... Just a side note, this system was setup offline. I used just the enclosed software and activated windows by phone. Please help me get back my hero image ....lol
Here is what I ordered. I used pcpartspicker.com to insure compatibility .....
