Hi, i recently upgraded my pc, i brought a am2 x2 5000+ black edition, a 2 gig kit of xms2, a x1950 pro 512mb, and i got a mini atx biostart board for about 40-50 pound (cheap) anyway i know this isnt supposed to be a super computer but it should be stable and not slow when dealing with large files.
So i got it setup, and installed xp pro, and everything seemed fine, now some of you may not agree with this, but i download alot of games and movies from the internet, which usually come split into so many files, the ones i get usually are about 30+ 100mb rar archives, and i have noticed that everytime a download like 30 100mb rar files, 3-10 end up being corrupted, also when i try to move large files from one folder to my desktop for example i get alot of glicthes, freezing for a few seconds, and just generaly being slow, the only thing i can think is maybe the memory is too fast for the board.
I was hoping one of you fine tech guys could give me some advice.
Thank you, tech9374.
If you need anymore information just ask.
EDIT: also i have a 80gb hdd which is quite old and makes noises, well its not really old, its western digital caviar se (wd800jd).
PS: sorry for the rambling
