Hi, I'm building a P4 system, but it keeps crashing. Whenever I install win2k, the computer just shuts down in the middle of installation. This is the specs of my system.
P4 1.7Ghz
Abit TH7-raid mobo
2x40gb ATA 100 7200RPM HD
Switftech MC462Heatsink and Fan
Using Arctic Silver 2 thermal paste
Hercules Prophet 2 GTS 64mb
Sound Blaster Live Platium with liveDrive
10x DVD-Rom Pioneer
Plexwriter 12/10/32A
Enermax E-G451P-v Power Supply
512MB samsung RDRAM
It is probably the tempurature of the CPU that makes it crash, but I don't know why it is so hot? I'm in an air conditioned room about no more than 70degrees F room temp, I'm using rounded IDE cables. When I go into the bios to check the temps...the Board has a temp at around 30dgrees C. and the CPU is about 45degrees...I don't know why it is running this hot? I built many systems before, so I'm not unexperienced.
Any suggestions?
