Trying to Solve problem

I am trying to solve my problem, i posted awhile back about my 5850 not performing to my standards and it always saying driver failed to respond and has recovered, Well now it has been just crashing a lot more with the different colored lines running vertical and stays on that screen. I ran prime 95 for 6 minutes and this is the outcome of worker #1

If i knew what this meant i wouldnt post here, so i am just curious to what you guys think. I have nothing overclocked





But worker #2 continued and continued

the fact you have errors all within six minutes means something is definately not happy at a hardware level, all of your symptoms point towards graphics card or ram .....

I would want to make a calculation by checking my PSU minimum requirements here and don't forget you need 30-40% headroom :)

I would then want to look at my ram requirements and check them against the voltages and timings your motherboard is supposed to supply and then against the actual settings stated in the bios ?

Looking at your system spec it looks like your running two graphics cards , if that's true then try running with one card and one stick of ram to see if you get the crash ?

If you don't then work your way back up in ram first

Take a look at this tutorial. Lots of good info on using Prime95 Stress Test:
Torture test your CPU with Prime95
and
Prime95 - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

One test does not make a pattern. Run the test again to see if it repeats.
If it does I would look at cooling first: remove the case cover(s) and run it that way. You could even blow a house fan towards the case or set it up in a freezing cold room.
The next logical test would be Memtest86+ to test your RAM.
Post back if nothing shows up after that stuff.

Well cooling if definately not an issue, i will check out into getting a new psu. i figured 750 would be able to run it. my cpu idles at 25 and full load maybe hit 45-47. gpu usually idles at 30 and max load of 50. ill try mem test.

i did the minimum power supply link, it reccomended 695 for me. and i have 750. Should i go bigger?

No i am running one hd 5850

Heres my current Power supply Kingwin LZ-750 750W ATX 12V Ver2.2 EPS Computer Power Supply SLI CrossFire Ready Supports PCI-E SATA Comply with Intel ATX/BTX standard 80 Plus Bronze certified 140mm Fan-Best Computer Online Store Houston Buy Discount Prices Texas-Directron.com

your power supply problem here is with amperage not watts you are only working with 18 Amps on the +12 volt rail and you should have around 35 Amps for you system
