Just finished building, Few Problems
Ok i just finished building my new comp yesterday. Everything smooth and fine. Just one thing that is annoying me. See my computer for some reason is acting really slow. This is a pretty nice high-endish build and im suprised at the performance im getting. For example things just keep freezing up for a minuite randomly. Like suddenly i click something and no response. You know what i mean? Its just going very slow and has small freeze-ups. Do i need to do some BIOS Tweaking or what? Cuz i left everything at default in the bios. BTW heres my specs:
ASUS P5GD1 ATX Motherboard Intel P4 3.0ghz, Skt.775 Presscott Core 2mb L2 Cache OCZ Platinum 2GB DDR 400 (2x1gb) Seagate 160gb, 7200rpm hard drive ATi Radeon 256mb X800 Pro Video Card Thermaltake SilentPower 420W Power supply Pioneer DVD-RW, Sony Floppy Can you help me make my computer run smoother? |

Is everything seated properly? You might try running 1 stick of RAM at a time.

No offense taken Mr.Ferrari. The reason I suggested using one stick of RAM at a time was for the reason Cricket posted. I had a very similar problem a year or so ago and it was a faulty stick of RAM.
