I complained to a friend of mine about one of my boxes just shutting down
without any notice.  He informed me that this is an issue, in some cases,
with people running Fedora 7.  I'm running Fedora 7 x86_64 (AMD X2 64
+5600, 4-GB RAM, nVidia PCIE graphic card, 2 - 320 GB SATA hard drives).
Is there a way to fix this or should I just start my migration to Fedora 8?

Thanks,

Hi,

the first thing I would point at: You've got not enough power (watts)!
With _that_ configuration you could simply run out of power with burning
something and looking/encoding a video or so. How many W has your power supply? And how many W does your
CPU,GPU,HDs,DVDs need at maximum?

regards

christoph


I am not running a 64 bit machine but I have had numerous power issues with my computer. Three power supplies later things are working quite well. Most issues started when trying to burn a DVD, in fact it burnt out a DVD burner by not supplying enough power for it.

I have had really bad experiences with Antec power supplies and a known problem with the 5V rail.

I have also had issues with the nvidia graphics driver but not powering down.
