NoMaD's PC/motherboard Issues

[NoMaD]

Hey guys, i figured I would create a new topic so that we don't clog up the others.

Specs:

Core 2 Duo E6555 @ 2.33 GHZ

DDR 2 800

FSB 1333

I read this on the mobo:

Q35t - AM - V:1.0A
15 - V36 - 001010

And it is an Acer Motherboard.

It managed to stay on lastnight, which gave me some time to atleast copy my crucial info off my harddrive.

I am starting to wonder if it might be my operating system, coz it is a pirated windows 7 and i dont think i cracked it properly coz it has a genuine pop up warning. Do you think that that could cause the system to hang and USB ports to switch off?

It's possible, not sure what Microsoft "fiddle" with when you don't have a genuine copy....once backed up, try format and re-install from fresh...you have 30 days from fresh install to make it genuine...so for 30 days you can see if everything works.

and I can assist in the cracking if you would like! I think this could be related to a pirated version of Win7 all sorts of things happen! Black Screens random reboots/ forced shut-downs etc. I think my old M/B could be well suited for your PC will have to check the RAM Modules / Version

I am willing to luss my Media Centre PC to help a brother out if it turns out to be the MB...

Will let you know the specs...

Girl pants McGee,

If the mobo is dead let's hit computersonly on sat morning and go ape.

Keen to go anyway and price/purchase some dank for BF3 in full splendour.
