The computer shuts down. I believe it´s an error made by Kaspersky. Downloaded a new version today. Hope it helps. But I lost nearly a whole WU while that action.

Banned · 08-31-2007

Now our 4 big shots are on top of our list. But watch Gabus, he´s on the run!

I've been running an intense work unit.

I had to reduce the CPU usage down to 40%. Currently the CPU temp is 78C, with folding running at 100% the temp was at 90C and the system beeper driving me nuts. With folding shut down, the temp runs 62C. The case is at a pleasant 25C.

Ill probably drop the CPU usage down to 30% to keep the temp in the low 70C range.

The bios shows the temps. By the way, was out looking for a replacement. How does this sound:

HP Pavilion a6152n Desktop PC $929.98
HP A6152N
• Intel Core 2 Quad Q6600
• 400GB hard drive
• LightScribe-enabled • 3GB of DDR2 memory
• Burns DVDs and CDs
• Windows Vista Home Premium
HP 17” Widescreen Monitor (W17E) • Flat-panel LCD
• 500:1 contrast ratio
• 250 cd/m2 brightness • 1440 x 900 resolution
• 8-millisecond response
• Analog input

The LCD should have a D-sub/DVI input at least. Analog is no longer acceptable

.

Where's the NVIDIA or RADEON video cards?

cyberdrakon · 09-30-2007

In general, i would stay away from HPs though...a lot of bloatware preinstalled...

Also, look up the actual motherboard and CPU that's specced, sometimes they pass of older models in their 'promotions'.

Good comments from the other guys.. The machines are generally stock with a high level labelling component like the cpu in this case and the rest is crap. Can you handle building your own pc? or look at a different make than HP.
also try a application for reading your current pc.. search speedfan, be nice to know what it is when the machine is up and running.

I've built them before, to lazy today. I found a supplier that has reasonable prices for custom build. As to the fan speed, it's averaging 3800 RPM. I don't know if that's a good speed.

Yeah thats about right, But I meant use speedfan (a free application) to check your cpu temps.

when you install it goto the last tab and click cpu and it'll start graphings it. the bios ain't very good as your not loading anything at that time and temps change very fast.

Na, I also use motherboard monitor that does the same.

Any way, I declare this thread

I say back to number crunching and team statistics.
