Just to get a clear idea of the precise problem(s) you're experiencing....
1. You indicate the "PC hangs regularly or switch(es) off after a while.."
Exactly what is happening here? You're able to boot to your Desktop without
incident and the system functions properly for some period of time and then
it "hangs"? What does this mean? The system simply freezes? No mouse
movement, inability to access programs/data, no keyboard access? Is this
what you mean by the PC "hanging"? You're simply "dead in the water"?
So what happens then? You manually reboot or power-off? Then the system
properly functions for a while before the problem(s) reoccur?
2. And about this "switch(ing) off after a while"...
Could you elaborate on what happens here? Again, the system operates for
some period of time without a problem and then without warning simply
powers-off on its own accord? Is this what's happening?
As stated in my other post, it was because of high CPU Usage which led to
high tempt and that caused the system to hang. After HT was disabled in Bios
and the Device Manager>Computer set to Standard PC, the system began to
return to normal. I think the Service Center didn't do a good job n I'm not
going back.
The other option is to do a clean install, activate HT and set ACPI
Multiprocessor PC in Device Manager>Computer. Hopefully, that problem will
not present itself again.
3. All this *immediately* happened following the replacement of the
motherboard, graphics card, and (as I believe you subsequently indicated), a
new processor? The system *never* worked properly following the new
components being installed? Or these problems arose sometime after the
system was overhauled?
The MB n graphic card were replaced. I indicated that the PSU could have
been replaced because the other posts mentioned it.
Surely you've discussed these problems you've experienced with the "service
center". What has been their response?
Anna
Thnks.
You had originally posted that due to a power "outage," you wer forced
to replace the motherboard and video card. Depending on the "age" of
the motherboard, if it was more than 1 year old, the service center
(aka repair shop) probably did / could not replace it with an "exact"
same motherboard (with "same" revision numbers.) Since XP's product
activation is "tide" to several components on the motherboard, a XP re-
install is the recommended method of repairing the Windows. Your
problem description is an "exact" result of a possible XP "product
activation" "info" conflicts.
