Re: [Vista] Odd Problems

Seems you have done everything I would have advised. Have you heard your hard drive clicking or making any loud noises? Also, have you been able to apply Windows latest updates? Are you running virus protection and checked your logs? I would also try removing a stick of ram and seeing if you can see any difference. You don't happen to have any devices like a DVD player installed and connected to your motherboard with the molex disconnected? Just a few things to throw out there...

My hard drive doesn't make any odd sounds. However, I sometimes have A LOT of hard drive activity like my SWAP file is being used. It gets rather annoying sometimes because my hard drive will swap for 30+ minutes. I have all current updates installed. I use Norton Internet Security and I haven't been able to run a full scan as the program crashes before the scan is even complete. There is nothing in the logs and I am pretty safe what I do on my computer.

I will try removing a stick of ram, that's a good idea

I have several devices attached to the motherboard. I have a LCD screen on my tower which is connected to my motherboard (USB I think) and I also have a "Xcellerator" device as well. I have a Blu-Ray Drive and a DVD-RW Drive.
