My partner bought a experience day for Christmas... Loads of options including clay pigeon ). So I'll be having at least one more go at it

Thanks. Perfect )

left it running all night ( left everquest on so there was some stuff going on) and this morning ( so far ) it seems fine if it was just teething problems i can handle that, will monitor and see what happens

Never thought of that. And that would have been the first thing id have checked at work..... Sigh always different when it's your own system

Was a clean windows install. I have given up for the night... Next thing would be disconnect the other drives. Formatted but left the 480 SSD and the 500drive... I did notice in bios that the memory has 1 stick in A2 and one in B2.... Would have thought either both in A or in A1 and b1...

bah im getting little mini lock ups. ill click on a window to type and it will be like its ignoring my mouse or keyboard, clicking again seemed to make it work, was initially in one of the games, then i noticed it in facebook chat thinking it might be related to my KVM, i put a timer in the...

i just bought one today, putting os and games installs on there, then a serperate ssd for documents / images etc

so, I went for it and bought a 1tb gen 4 crucial m2. from a very quick supplier it came this morning, chucked it in ( disconecting all others first ) and installed windows... all went fine so far. first start up, windows loaded in about a second.. so quick i doubted the pc was off. wow...

im just concerned that my issues have come from motherboard ( or could it even be graphics card - do the slots share resources) and buying a big nnme may mess me up, i am having lock ups and thing now ( took the m2 out, but still happening)

To be honest I don't mind paying more if they don't break so easily. Any suggestions?

I was thinking bad usb install, because it does start the install. But since I put the M2 in I have also noticed the the system doesn't always start properly. Sometimes (about 50%) it locks at the Flash screen. Can't get into bios (no response from del or f12 for boot menu). And it never...

Mm interesting. Maybe there is a problem with the M2. Windows installation failed. Message was could not create next stage of boot. Maybe I need to disconnect the other drives first and try again

I had a look in the motherboard manual, and cant see anything about 2 m2s having a bad effect. but I am thinking, if i use the 256gig m2 i have in there now ( installed it earlier) and maybe buy 1tb or a 2tb SSd and put that in along with the 500 gig ssd i have in now ( currently with OP system...

I just ran crystal mark on all the hard drives first off i got my lettering wrong. the SSD sata /600 was C not K and showing as ok c: 500 gig sata/600 2.5 ssd read 555.18 write 523.26 power on 13088 hours D: 700 gig sata/300 3.5 hdd read 56.27 write 59.65 power on 52712 hours E: 300 gig...

so, i put the m2 in, stupid finicky little screw gave my fat fingers some trouble. ran cyrstal disk, and that showed it to be good ( naughty people at the shop in stoke - wont name them as they are an overclockers competitor) may well have told me some fibs. but then i started getting little...

just ran crystaldisk on my current set up, just to get a baseline all bar one of them ( including the 500 ssd) are showing as Caution, and all of them on the relocated sectors count ( all between 80 and 100) so maybe i need to replace the SSD ( or at least have it as a low importance drive )...

wel well just looking in my bits draw and found a 256gb Kingston RBUSNS8154P3256GJ1 which if i remember was in my laptop, and when i took it to a shop because it was over heating, they swapped it out for a 1 gig one ... cant remember why, i think they said it failed a test( i was going to...

i get an unable to accept invite pop up

the other thing, do i need to buy some kind of bracket for the ssd's as it stand the SSD in my system just rests on one of the other hard drives, as there doesent seem to be any where to put it in my case ( i am really showing the age of my system arnt i?) I also have a 1tb 2.5 inch hard...

yeah i meant to type 500 gig ssd but my fingers went to SATA instead
