Hey Guys,
Wondering if you can help me out a little bit on this XPS system. Its a cross between an gen 4 and a gen 5 system. (Its more Gen 5 so I posted in in the Gen 5 board)
Here is the break down,
XPS Gen 4 Case
Xps Gen 5 PSU
XPS Gen 5 Motherboard
Processor: Pentium D 945 Sl900 Malay 3.4
Heatsink: CN-0w4254-72204-510-0a7g Rev A00 made in china
Ram: Axiom 4gb (2x 2gb) 14150 0023855
Problem: The fans on this box will not run below 1000% percent if you try and do anything other than run notepad. I can't seem to get any temperature reading from the CPU to know if its really overheating or just getting a bad value.
I had seen some post stating the problem may be a bad heat sink that the ones made in china had issues.
With the previous processor ( P4 640 SL7z8 Costa Rica 3.2) I didn't have the fan issues.
Thoughts?
