Got into the BIOS area, but did not see anything related to voltages on the displays - did not go deeper into any setup menus other that the main menu tabs accross the top - didn't want to risk affecting anything. Where would the voltage info appear?

Going through the areas won't affect anything unless you change a setting.

It is not unusual for them not to be in the bios.

A few voltages but not the ones I need to see. How old is the motherboard or the system itself?

OK then the voltages should be able to be monitored through the mobo. Not sure why they are not showing up in any report. Lets try one more and see if we get anything.

Speccy.
I have never used the program but I do know there is a voltage area or sensors most likely if you could get me a screenshot of that.


Please Run the PCPitstop.com OverDrive Full Tests

Here's how:

You must use your Internet Explorer for this procedure. (doesn't work so well in Firefox or others). If your machine is running Vista or Windows 7, you must Select IE to “Run as Administrator”. After completing PCPitstop OverDrive you can close your IE browser and re-open it Normally so that you are no longer running as administrator.

Go to: http://www.pcpitstop.com
Click on "Free Computer Check-up" listed below PC Pitstop OverDrive
In the User Login - Click on "Sign up FREE!"
You'll need to submit a valid email address and create your own password, then click - Create Account(button)

Now enter your email address and password to Log in, Select - Scan this system Now!(button)
You will then be asked to download an ActiveX component and allow it to install.
It is safe and does not compromise your privacy.
Follow the on-screen prompts to install the ActiveX and to allow the Full Tests to be run on your machine.

The Full Tests take about 2 1/2 - 3 minutes on most machines.
When complete, a Results - Summary - Recommended Fixes will be displayed.

Please post the URL internet address, from your Results, back here into this Topic Thread so that we can review the configuration and present performance levels of your machine.

Note: During the graphics 2D and graphics 3D testing, your screen will display some rapidly moving objects.
If you are sensitive to visual flashing, it may cause dizziness. Therefore, look away from the screen during that portion of the testing.

After reviewing the results we will be more informed and may be able to provide better recommendations for you to work towards improving your machine's performance.

While PCPitstop does offer a variety of Paid Products, the PCPitstop OverDrive testing is FREE. Please ignore the references to Paid Products. We prefer to provide manual solution instructions that you can apply directly to your machine.

Best Regards

additional note - my system was very unstable this morning and the last start-up prompt asked me to run a windows start-up fix program (which I did). The system has been stable (i.e., not crashing since then)?

OK the following I see need to be corrected.
Your Java is out of date and a security risk. Your version is 6.24 and the newest is 6.26
Recommend you update this.
Your Audio driver is out of date
Your Video driver is out of date.


Please download JavaRa from the link in my signature below to your desktop and unzip it to its own folder

    * Accept any prompts.
    * Open JavaRa.exe again and select Search For Updates.
