Computer Trouble

posted by justmee on Apr 25, 2008


I started off with a problem with my old graphics card. I installed a new GeForce 6200oc 256mb Card and a new 400 watt power supply. Now I have trouble, mainly when I put my computer in standby then go back and try to use it. Sometimes it works fine. Other times it will bring up the desktop and either lockup or shut down completely and restart. Sometimes I'll get a message that said my computer just recovered from a hardware error. I have updated the bios and changed a setting for standby in the bios that seemed to help or so I thought. I also tried updating the video drivers but this created another problem so i went back to the one that came with the card. Any ideas!

Most likely an IRQ conflict error between other hardware. Double check settings first, then try to reinstall drivers. This might help: http://www.helpwithpcs.com/upgrading/change-irq-settings.htm
