According to that, your HDD is getting too hot AND your voltages are low. Very definitely could be causing problems. The 12v rail isn't even putting out 9 volts. Let's verify...do you have Everest? If not, you can get it HERE. Get me the readings found under Computer > Sensor.

Shut the machine down for a while. It will run longer at a time. I think the heat is causing the hangs...is the HDD installed between other drives or is there plenty of breathing room for it? We need to get that cooled down to a max of 40*C.

i hope this does it....im installing a lot of crap :| ill do anything you say though

hey wannabe1 .... why i dont think its the hd because it had a WD 6.4 gig and it locked up then but do you think it could be my powersupply causeing this? the drive i installed by myself *proud of it* i made sure i had 2 harddrive cades up and down (positioned it in the middle) i only got a floppy and cd rom in the top slots and it's a terminator board (REAL SMALL) so there's plenty of room for the HD

[wannabe1]

Yup...I do think it's the PSU. The HDD temp needs to come down a bit, though. How many fans do you have in the case?

You got another PSU laying around you can try on that machine. Should be at least 350W.

[nic777]

my dads got tons (crunch8 your pal i think lol) ill try a 400watt for safty i got the psu fan the cpu fan and heatsink and side case cover fan (i just undid my cover and put this little portable fan on it blowing IN instead of the outside fan.

[wannabe1]

That server still running? Tell your dad "Hi"!

Change out the power supply and the temp might go down a bit, too. The PSU may have been generating a lot of internal heat.

[nic777]

dang i just peaked in to see how many watts the psu was it was a 450 ouch thats gona hurt the budget

[nic777]

lol yea the servers doing fine we named it the "Grey Ghost" i'll get a psu out of the shed tommorow and post my results if works ill edit my first post saying fixed if not ill continue to post

[wannabe1]

Good luck!
