Its not the HDD. I have 2 of them. Both with a desperate is. Both freeze. Even my CDROM drives were getting hot. I think the PSU is screwed. And I hope that's all it is

Dm47021 · Jul 30, 2013

ugh, did some more testing. starting to really think the board or cpu. half the time now my cpu fan doesnt start spinning, when that happens i get no video. also froze in the bios, froze running memtest86+ after 1:11 about the same ammount of time it freezes always after boot.

remeoved half the ram. tried them all...still freezing. unplugged hdds,cdroms, freezing.m unless the psu really is that weak now... it looks grim here

If all that is failing, it might be you motherboard.

could be the heat paste, could be a faulty fan.. could be the power supply...how old is your power supply? over a year under a year? under a year I would take the cooling block off and clean the cpu with rubbing alcohol and check what shade of blue it is... if it's not blue, Good! reapply the heat conductive paste in a even layer and make sure your cooling block is not clogged with dust and well connected... then try again...

Dm47021 · Jul 30, 2013

NOPE. found the problem.... lol

psu was going bad. the 4 pin 12V atx connector is literally brown and welded to my board, hence the board is fried.

so question... can an AM3+ motherboard take an AM3 CPU ?

... So gotta replace PSU + MB

AM3 750W....thing is everything in pc was heating up. even cdrom drives. cpu never got above 109.

I hope that's not 109 C... because you know that's pretty freaking hot right? Like I know the thermal shutdown on all of my computers will kick in before that.

Way back in the day some of the AMD processors used to get that hot... but we are talking like K6 era processors.

As are manufacturing process has gotten smaller, so too has the amount of energy lost to heat.

So if that is Celsius then... yeah... fried is a good word to use.

Yes, the socket is backwards compatible.

Blyss · Jul 30, 2013

If your psu was failing in such a way that it was causing that much heat you may have been overvolting your CPU, mem, etc... so you could have done some damage there too just FYI.

well, the mem is all good. tested in my mothers computer... had to do a repair on hers.

but no. thats 109 f.. 28c... so cpu never got hot, and it seems to work, i can still boot into linux .but freezes... i ran memtest and all passed.

so the system shutting off prevented damage.

.. so this is what iam looking at for a MB

ASRock 990FX Extreme4 AMD Motherboard - Newegg.com

donations are welcome lol, even though i feel i asked for enough, just a humble person when it comes to that sort of thing.

ill be back up n running on a temp desktop.

Your cpu is am3 or am3+?

What brand was your motherboard?

Dm47021 · Jul 30, 2013

Phenom II X6 1100T BE AM3, MB was BIOSTAR A870U3, ive never had an issue with biostar boards in the 10yrs ive used them.this was caused by a faulty psu..

here is what i was looking at.

smartmanvartan · Jul 30, 2013

What brand was your psu? and why where you asking if the am3+ socket was backwards compatible for am3 processors both your cpu and your targeted mb are am3+... sorry it just confused me and I'm sipping my first coffee...

Blyss · Jul 30, 2013

Are you absolutely sure the mobo is fried? Have you tried a different PSU? If the psu is that whack there is no way to tell the stability of the other components without either swapping them out or swapping the PSU out.

the mb is effed... cant get the plug to the atx 12v out of the socket.. its melted in there. also on the back of the board. its all burned out right there. plus i smelt it lol

You let the blue smoke out...

noo. but it was hot enough to fry that part of the board.. btw.. cpu is fine

Dm47021 · Jul 30, 2013

Checking it out on your Git now... By the way, your repositories are a great learning tool! Watching the changes is helping me learn how all this works... slowly LOL

Dm47021 · Jul 30, 2013

Open invite. If you want to really really learn this stuff.. Hit me up. We will talk, along with the rest of the klan

You should schedule a G+ Hangout to talk about it or to teach us all this

That's why I would like to see a booting 4.3 on the warp (wouldn't care if all it did was boot up and could show people the about phone)... to anger the people I know that have the S3
