ok hello all .. finally had some results.. thanks toucam.. i did it in the end.. got myself a GA-p35 board and it works fine.. sorry to say to all of ya.. ram timings volt settings.. all useless i stuck this new mobo in with all my new gear and it booted first time i didnt even have to change...
ok it still happens.. ive just seen a thread on the net of somone experienceing the same problem finally.. it was their cpu.. im gonna stick it in my friends machine and run it again if it reboots this time.. it worked when i did it last time but who knows maybe it should have been left for longer
ive used another card :S...a 7600 and an 8600
well heres the latest..(this is my first post from the new machine btw) I played wow on this for 6 solid hours last night with no reboot.. i then left it to sleep .. while i did ... left a notepad window open and its still alive!!!
it definatley...
if it was pre built it would have gone back a long time ago.. im not that stupid
im not going to post up here anymore unless i get some real results.. im gonna call ocuk in the morning and tell them that their advice to get on the forums has proved useless and try to take this to the next...
no it wasnt pre built.....come on ..does it say anywhere that i got a prebuilt system.. i brought the parts to work as a whole yes but i put it together myself.. im not gonna pay 150£ for someone to snap it all together..
i can find time for work and testing im just serverly limited by the laptop im working on,, its terribly slow and cumbersome and overheats a lot but its still more workable than my desktop in its current condition.. it makes things very difficult hence the purchase in the first place... i have...
damnit.. i thought i had cracked it that time
it ran for a2 hours after i installed dx10 .. perfectly .. i was running that nvidia cascade demo on and off.. finally i closed it and started dloading some other demos and it rebooted..
it makes no sense at alll!!!!

its running at between 25 and 30 usually .. 30 tops the graphics card is running a bit warmer at 50
i ws pretty careful about applying the thermal paste after the first load of boots i scraped off the akasa stuff and put some artic silver. i put about half a rice grain worth on and spread it...
now ill have to start running apps and games to stress it out a bit
outcome.. well vista is running as solidly as xp was before.. ie i can run stuff great but it keeps rebooting itself :(

yeah i did that..
ok so a bit of an update.. i finally managed to get vista to install
i took it all to bits and reseated everything with care.. plugged all the drives in with different power connectors and satas... it installed ok
now its running alright. i had one reboot using media center...
