Welcome back Gm, long time no see!
Sadly, I'm back to the old plan of 'trying to afford replacement' rather than spending on new stuff. My gaming PC is becoming ridiculously unstable and I'm reasonably convinced it's the board at fault. I need to do some further tests.

Thanks mate... and sorry to hear about your dilemma. ;)
I'm in the same boat mate and I'm NOT looking forward to "buying" the new stuff in a year or so. ;( BUT it's the way it is when your kiddies are draining you dry and your looking for a job.. found the job actually and just have to pass a test to get it. :D
Good luck with your "testing" and also on choosing a new MOBO if need be. :)

Hehe thanks. Trying to decide what to do at the moment. Don't really want another limiting P45, don't really want an absurdly expensive X48. Can't afford an i7 right now unless I get a summer job (which is looking increasingly unlikely). Unless I do something there's not much point in bringing the PC home for the summer, and if I don't do that, there's no real point in it being here. Considering selling the guts of it and living off the E5200/HD4830 for a little bit until I can afford to start anew with a PC that works properly. Since I bought the board off shaff he probably bought it off OcUK in which case I'm a bit stuffed as they're useless for returns.

Well that son of a motherless goat SHAAF!!! ROFL.
Sorry to hear that buddy.... it's a shame that a "KNOWN" e-tailer is such a liability!! :(*
So which mobo are you thinking about when it comes time to buy something?? I have a GREAT DFI X48 mobo. :D NOT for sale tho...
Again good luck mate... tell SHAAF to call those sorry SOB's and see about a return or repair if it's the real issue.

Before it's all done, I'm going to try putting win7 on it. I have a lot of issues that could be OS related (but I somewhat doubt it) on top of all this.

Well to be fair, I've very rarely been given the option, most sites I use only sell OEM hard drives.
