I decided to build a computer from parts that I have got for free or bought in the past
It would consist of
Pentium 4 3GHZ Hyper-Threading 478
Gigabyte GA-8IPE1000 Pro2 (with dead USB ports so I added a PCI USB2.0 card)
2GB DDR 400MHZ Dual Channel
Asus AH4650 AGP
Hauppauge WinTV HVR1300 PCI
I did a clean install of Windows XP and 7 (dual boot).
The PC was stable until I installed the drivers for HD4650 and the Realtec AC97 soundcard. Since then it freezes randomly, especially when playing video games or videos. But it is also possible to freeze/reboot even when using Windows Explorer in Windows7 (Aero enabled).
I read somewhere online that these cards are not real AGP, but PCI-E with a southbridge onboard that does the conversion. I tried both the official drivers Asus provides for that card (http://support.asus.com/download.asp...sBPAoZ7MObqZTY) and the most recent AMD hotfix for AGP Radeon HD (http://support.amd.com/us/kbarticles...AGPHotfix.aspx)
What else can I do to make it run?
