| well oki made wrong diagnose.. it was the ATA66 cable that failed on me... during reinstall of XP I heard a POP, system shut down & had a burned smell.. ask RichyB how this makes you feel.. not very good I can assure you. Not overclocking ANYTHING, lost 1 quantum 12gb IDE HD

| Damn sad to hear... luckely a 12GB HD isn't the most expensive component to loose. By the way, i know the P4 is LOUD, but it was a gift.

| I got 3 stock coolers, no problem there, still gonna use the thermaltake cause it cools better & I don't hear the noise turned out the PSU was the bad boy, destroyed the HD , almost did on the 2nd 12gb quantum I got here.. after format it gave a nice XP error "this drive is damaged etc..", removed all the fans from the PSU, retried, passed without problems I'm throwing this PSU (230Watt, ok was pushing the limits there ) out of the door, gonna get me a new one tommorow this is what could've been ->

| I now realise I was pushing the limits of the poor PSU it was oki for the Duron900 system, but can't handle the power requirements the P4 2.26 needs ah well, let's scoop around www.prijswatch.be for a nice bargain PSU

| You'd better ask gamer. Seems like my package got lost... aangetekend verzonden & met prioriteit 12 werkdagen terug. "Duurt maximaal 4 dagen, meneer." Morgen eens gaan klagen, waarom betaal je zoveel voor prioriteit & aangetekend als ze toch de helft van de tijd hun beloftes niet nakomen? :/
