I just bought a new processor/motherboard/memory for my pc to upgrade it.
My specs for the new machine thats now built are:
AMD Athlon XP 2000+
ABit AT7 Motherboard
Radeon 8500 64mb
512 ddr memory
SB! Live 5.1 Soundcard
PCI Ethernet Card
LG 32x Burner
16xDVD-Rom
300w power supply
Microsoft Mouse+Keyboard
17" Monitor
Windows XP Home Edition OS
Thats about everything but i'm having problems, my computer either restarts itself or I get a memory dump. This happens all the time, I have new xp drivers in for the hardware I have but it still happens. If I change the settings on the processor so my fsb is down so it runs as a 1800+ instead of a 2000+ it seems to work fine but I dont want it as a 1800+ I bought it for the power of a 2000+ so I want the power out of it. Also with the agp on 4x in the bios games load then crash straight to desktop, but if I set the agp to 2x games play no problem, but having a new card like a Radeon 8500 that should surely support 4x agp.
plz if someone could help I would appreciate it
thx
