- I do have 3 drives plugged in to this system, and 768 Megs of RAM, but on the other hand it's a 400W power source. Unfortunately the "mirror test" doesn't work that well for me since I don't know what to look for! -- but I'd be surprisedi f this is the problem. I suppose I could unplug one or 2 drives & see ifthat makes a difference? Seems to me the next step is to change out the power source -- osund right to everyone? thanks again, matt
for what it's worth, I am running little stress test, simultaneousluy playing a dvd in the dvd-drive, and ocmpiling a kernel. I'm getting slight shifts on the voltages: +12v --> +13.31; +5V --> +4.46 cpu temp up to 70. (thisi s an athlon k7 2400+). So I think (a) anything involving the DVD is clearly a bit dodgy; and (b) I probably need a new power supply. matt
