PC Specs
I recived a mobo yesterdat Foxconn socket 478 intel pentium 4 processor running at 1.28 gh with 1GB of RAM DDR1 and 128 MB G-Force Card Fx 5200 asembled by asuss , 7.1 sound Blaster card , UsB card 2.0 , DVD pioneer 16X , 120 gb HDD , and a 450W power supply.
Problem Description
the pc only has the standart cooling fan that comes with the procesor ,
the rest is an AC in room were the pc is located and a big 6 speed lakewood
fan aiming directly to the hole mobo.
The issue is that during game play the games become very slow , making it imposible to enjoy them.
the guy tells me that he recenly bought 2 brand new memories of 512mb
each , that helped but still the problem persist.
Plus the pc crashes and performs sudden reboots , and it makes an awfull lot of noise wen it gets slow , in addition to this problem if the pc stays on for a long period of time it gets frozen.
What have i done to help
we formated the hard drives , reinstalled windows , reinstalled the games ,
and still nothing , i also tryed to persuade thu guy to sel that old piece
of **** symply get a new one , but , he want to fis that one and also get a new one.
i checked the memorys and they were ok...
i also checked the wiring and voltage and it turned out that
every time he turned his 17 inch relesys monitor while the pc was on
the computer beggun to make this anoying Humming sound.
Resolution
My fort is networking , so i know that i miss lots of test that should provide
me with a diferent result.
*i think the hard drives are messed up.
*i also think that the procesor has also something to
do with it.
also heres the list of pc games that he is trying o run
