hi all,

update after i change ram

at first i thought it's working

after i play diablo for an hour

and come out

the  system slow again

apparently the hardisk seem causing the issue

then i run the disk speed test

write speed only 3mb/sec

usually i get about 50mb/sec

WHAT HAVE HAPPENED?

after dismastle the 4gb will try again

[yigit]

can you try to run scan disc first?

Uh... Are you running 64bit Windows? Just out of curiosity.

Also can you post the timings on your memory? CL, TRCD, TRP, TRAS? If they don't match it could slow your computer down.

[benlaw]

yes 64bit window

i only using 1 memory now

memory is samsung

11-11-11-30-41 1.5v

as for the upgrade memory it's here

after i play any game

i use Parkdale software to test hardisk speeed

apparently it's super slow

notice the hardisk bottom also super burn hot

shutting down also take time
