Hi, im a new guy. I never post in forums, i usually just do a lot of searching for people who have my problems. But, i have been searching for so long and cant find any help. I was hoping someone here might be able to help, or point me in the right direction.
I bought a custom computer off ebay about a year ago. It was good at first but slowly has given me nothing but problems. Constant random crashing/freezing, blue screens of death, programs taking forever to open if at all, games crashing. I have done so many computer tests, registry fixers and have formatted my computer a bunch of times. The problems grew more and more slightly up until i tried to install a new hard drive. Upon formatting the new hard drive i got the blue screen of death. When i tried to reboot it would just freeze right at the bios. I tried putting the old hard drive back in and testing out other hardware like the ram, cleaning it, different operating systems, nothing seemed to work. So i decided to just leave it a lone for a while. After a couple if months i had a funny dream that told me to put my 2 sticks of ram in 2 specific slots (the first and last ones) and it booted up instantly. Now after that my computer was working just like it was with all the same problems, maybe a little worse. After a while it started freezing at the bios randomly. Then every time. So i started testing out all of my ram in different spots with new ram too. Finally i got it to boot by sticking my 1gigs on the two end slots and 2 256's in the middle 2. That is the only combination that will work. Not sure if i am forgetting anything, but....If anyone can help i would extremely appreciate it.
Here are my specs
Processor: Intel(R) Core(TM)2 Extreme CPU Q6850 @ 3.00GHz
Memory: (RAM) 4.50 GB
Graphics: NVIDIA GeForce 8800 GT (SLI)
OS: Windows Vista 64-bit
Motherboard: Asus P5N-E SLI......650i i think?
