hey guys i have a strange and grave problem here.
actually there are a no. of problems that i think are inter-related ie. problem of heating system
and (i think inadequate power too.)
so i will go step by step.
first my spikebuster is connected to the main power supply and is working fine.
to it is connected my ups,my mobile charger, and ADSL modem. my ups is connected to my cpu using a male/female cable.
and my monitor is connected to the ups directly.
i got my bsnl modem on last friday 2/9
and my userid and psswd on tuesday 6/9
earlier my system was hanging very much and working very slow as also
speedfan showed the hdd temperature to be 50-52 deg C AND SEAGATE 40GB DRIVE FITNESS AT 43% & PERFORMANCE AT 100%
so on tuesday 6/9 i opened my cabinet and cleaned my heatsink,smsp and other dust and also
repositioned my hdds in the rack
they were installed as -floppy drive first, below it was my 20gb WD hdd and below was Seagate 40 gb one,
so i reposistioned with floppy in the middle and 2 hdd apart, thinking that was the problem with heating hdd.
stuck all wires together,cleaned the smps. assembled the system. and powered on.
my modem is connected to the usb port.
made a dialer -broadband with user id and password(PPPOE)
then i connected to bsnl dataone, and it worked fine.
got good speeds and even posted about it on the forum.
but i cudnt login using my userid and psswd on the dataone.in site. showed wrong userid and psswd.
but since my system was hanging and working very slow, so i decided to format it and reinstall on wednesday night.
i installed xpsp2,longhorn trasnform pack9 etc. and the system became quite fast
(with bootup speeds=upto 1min 30 secs.& shutdown=30-45secs)
and restored all setting with the file and setting trasnfer wizard.
still now THE TEMP IS BETWEEN 45-48 DEG C.
now comes the real problem.
ALSO WHEN I TRIED TO CHANGE THE DRIVE LETTRS OF MY 5 PARTITIONS & RESIZE USING POWERQUEST PARTITION MAGIC 8,
IT RESTARTS THE SYSTEM AND IN THE BEGINNING SAYS "partition magic culdnt acess the batch file. make sure ur system 32 folder is not compressed or corrupt".
i tried installing the new hardware(my ADSL modem)
so i gave it a location where the driver folder resided on my hdd.
then the HUAWEI modem installer setup started
as usual the "driver not signed" window cropped up, but b4 i cud click on "continue anyway" it closed and
installation continued.
in the meanwhile hundreds of "found new hardware" windows triggred by rundll32 started up.
while i was closing them , again the "driver not signed" window cropped up, but b4 i cud click on "continue anyway" it closed and
installation continued.
finally it showed "some problem the harware culdnt be installed". try again.
so i tried installing the modem again and removed the drivers
and tried installing once more but same problem. after trying for some 5 times,
i clicked on "install drivers automatically" in the new hardware window.
and the modem got installed successfully.
now THE MOST IMP. PROBLEM
FIRST THE NEW LOCAL AREA CONNECTION (WHICH EARLIER SHOWED CONNECTIVITY) NOW SHOWED NO CONNECTIVITY. AND WHN I TRIED TO
CONNECTED USING THE DIALER I HAD MADE, IT SAID "REGISTERING ON THE NETWORK" AND MY MONITOR WENT BLANK. AND NO CPU WAS WORKING. EVN [CTRL]+[ALT]+[DEL]
DIDNT WORK. SO I RESET. AGAIN I TRIED AND THE SYSTEM RESTARTED AUTOMATICALLY.
MY MODEM WAS STILL ON. AND I STARTED MY SYSTEM. THIS TIME THE CPU WAS WORKING AND THE MONITOR WASNT WORKING-BLINKING LIGHTS ONLY.
I CHECKED ALL POWER CONNECTIONS, AND POWERED MY UPS AGAIN. BUT STILL NO USE. THEN I SWITCHED OFF MY MODEM AND TRIED AGAIN. ND THIS TIME THE MONITOR POWERED UP
AND WORKED AND SHOWED AWARD BIOS.
AS soon as the ystem booted up, i switched on the adsl modem and the system went blank again. thinking it was due to the
adsl modem, i plugged the phone wire to my dialup modem. re-registered at the netone site.
and whn i tried using the new userid and psswd of netone, it TOO SAID REGISTERING ON THE NETWORK AND SYSTEM WENT BLANK.
monitor blank, cpu ot working. so i had to reset and bootup aagain.
tried calling bsnl guys. they checked my network and userid and psswd. said it was working fine. no problem with network.
i also told them that when the net was connected earlier and some phone came, it sound rainy and disturbances. so they said problem in the line. so lineman came and checked the line.
all the modem connections are alright. phone line has some disturbances but couldnt check since modem was not connecting.
SO TELL ME WHY IS MY MODEM RESTARTING THE SYSTEM??
CUD IT BE A VIRUS? i now in a cyber cafe downloading virus updates.
EVN AT 47 DEG c MY SYSTEM IS WORKING FINE.
GRAVE SYSTEM PROBLEM
