Hey, not sure if this is the right place to post this, or if anyone has had a similar experience // is able to identify any problems that I'm having... anyway
I purchased an amd am2 6000+ last Thursday (Upgraded from my am2 3800+) and it was running fine for the first day or two. After a while, I was getting random BSOD's, however they only occurred while running Firefox (games ran fine, had no issues with the hellgate demo). Yesterday, while playing the hellgate demo some of the sounds where stuttering, and I was getting a slight delay when performing certain actions (the primary issues of my 3800, which was under the minimum requirements for the game). Left to go to work, and when I came back I kept getting BSOD's when I tried to boot the PC. I've had a few different messages, none of which seem to occur any more often than the others. I read on another forum that this was more than likely due to an issue with ram, so I tried swapping out the sticks but it didn't change. the BSOD's where occurring up until the vista account login page was, however it usually restarted before then. I swapped out the 6000 for the 3800 (still using the heatsink//fan from the 6000) and it booted fine. put the 6000 back in, had a quick browse through the BIOS settings and didn't see anything wrong, and future attempts at booting the PC have led to it getting stuck on the screen with the bar scrolling across... I've left it for around 10-15 minutes so far and it hasn't changed. Swapped the CPU's back over, and I've now found myself posting this message on various sites to see if others may be able to help me >.>
If it helps at all, here are the specs of my PC:
-320gb Seagate barracuda, 7200rpm, SATA 2
-2x 512mb Geil ram, 800Mhz (5, 5, 5, 12)
-2x 1gb Geil ram, 800Mhz (5, 5, 5, 12)
-Antec TruePower Trio 550w PSU
-Asus M2N SLI deluxe mobo
-8800GTS (640mb) - eVGA
Would be greatly appreciated if I could get a response to this message
