Problem is my computer start very slowly , (there is no programs yet) and very often randomly freezing.

I have checking my memory memtest86+ no problems found.
I reset BIOS
I upgrade BIOS, all drivers.
I borrow RAM STICK from other computer
I Reinstall Windows 7 like 10 times, using other dvd brand , burning by 2x speed or faster

And intresting is computer works faster with one stick ram 2GB THAN two stick ram 2GB but its still freezing alot like every 30 second for 2min~

Please help me, mayby u got some ideas what is wrong.
Btw. sorry for english

Take the hard drive back for another, it`s bad. The fact that it`s new does not mean it`s good.

Take it back, exchange it, reinstall windows on the new hard drive.

The reason i change hard drive was error during installation, new hard drive solved this problem, but i got freezes now. Why u think problem is hard drive? Its new from shop, never used before.

I think it`s the hard drive because it`s freezing, like I said, just because it`s new does not mean it`s good.

A fresh install on a properly working hard drive should never freeze up.

Did you spec this RAM you moved from the other PC? It needs to be the exact spec for the computer you moved it to.

Grecrocker might be right. YOu May need to spec the ram first. Also let me ask you: Do you use an old Sata cable or the one you use is new? I tell you this cause last week I had a problem like yours boot use to takes forever or sometimes was not successful. Every thing changed for good once I switched cables.

 

[AddRAM]

Well it should go without saying that all the other parts were working fine as all he did was add a new hard drive to the pc, and it is then that he started having issues.

You need to use a Sata3 cable & Sata3 port.

Check your jumper settings.

Check your jumper settings.

This is it Specifications for the WD Caviar Blue SATA 6Gb/s, 3Gb/s and PATA 100 Mb/s internal hard drives
i got default without any jumper

 

[Ccasarguedas]

Is there anyway you can try another Sata cable???. Doesn't have to be Sata3. Just another cable, a new one or from another pc.

First thing I would check is >

Have you got your drive on the correct Sata socket on the motherboard?

Some sata ports on board are made ONLY for attaching dvd/blu ray drives!

Default is for a SATA3 motherboard, do you have a SATA3 motherboard?

In post 10 above, you said NO.

I dont have Sata3, only sata2 i have read its no difference if i connect sata3 to sata2, but if it is source of problem, what should i do now ?

 

[AddRAM]

I don`t think that`s your problem as the hard drive will just transfer/read/write at sata 2 speeds.

I have never heard of this.

But i dont have any freezing problems with hard drive sata2, i dont care about speed its ok for me with sata 2 speed, all i want is have windows7 without freezing every minute.

I suggested to try another Sata cable just for troubleshooting. If you May try a different cable you still experience troubles after that We should try something else...

Set the jumper to SATA2,
or
buy a Sata2 HDD.
