Current, worst and threshold values are all abstract values generated by the drive's firmware. They mostly count down (lower is worse) from 100 or 200 towards zero. Current is the current value, worst is the worst value that it's ever reached, and threshold is the point at which it's considered a "failure".

The "raw" value for reallocated sectors is the actual count of bad sectors. CrystalDiskInfo displays it as hexadecimal, so 0xBF7 = 3063. You can often identify a drive as "probably failing" long before SMART considers it to be a failure by examining the raw values. Good drives normally have no bad sectors at all, and even one or two bad sectors is often a sign of trouble.

please and thank you for helping.

to follow up on this I exchanged the board at mc for a new one and I still have the same problem. The ram seems fine (if it were the ram wouldn't it be more dramatic like crashing/freezing?) and I'm running off the igp so could it be my hard drive?

Once again, you are a wealth of HDD information. Judging from what you said, would this HDD also be going bad?

There's nothing in that one that suggests a terminal disk problem, but the UDMA CRC Error Count is extremely high. That's usually a bad SATA cable contact, or possibly interference from something the SATA cable runs close to.

Those are an absolute count (at least, they are on all drives I've seen), so the value will never reduce. Therefore it's possible that the problem has already been fixed and the errors all occurred some time ago.

Take it apart, put new thermal paste in between the GPU and the GPU heatsink. Also make sure the fan is spinning properly and unobstructed when it's under load.

Interesting, the SATA cable is all old and twisted. Again, thanks for your explanation.

So I'm trying to stream with XSplit, and I can't seem to get even a decent resolution. The stream runs at a steady FPS, my CPU is running at about 30% capacity, my game doesn't feel even slightly laggy, so obviously my computer and internet can handle a higher-quality stream, but I can't figure out what setting to change to increase the resolution.

Here's the best result I was able to achieve, but it's still a fairly low resolution: http://www.justin.tv/kovaz477/b/319261881

Here are my specs. I thought this would be plenty to get like a 480p stream but maybe I'm wrong.

i5-2500k
GTX 460
8 GB RAM

[image loading]

So my question is: 1) My computer is enough to stream, right? I don't need 1080p or anything, just 480p or something similar is fine.
2) What do I have to change on XSplit to change the resolution?

EDIT: Nevermind I figured it out. For some reason I thought the 'Resolution' menu at the top was only for the preview window

1. You should be able to stream a nice 720p, especially if your CPU is overclocked.

2. Change from what? Give your XSplit settings. Stream quality depends on much more than just resolution.

The same ones you use for stress testing. Just cycle up, down, up down. Only some TIM requires a burn in time, but if yours does, I suggest using P95, personally, IBT is a little short. Run it up till it stabilizes, cool it back off to within ~5C of idle, back up, repeat.

If you're repasting a GPU, I suggest avoiding furmark for burn-in, as it's a bit too hot, honestly. Use something like 3dMark11 graphics tests, again letting it cool back off.

make sure sticky keys is turned off AND the shortcut to turn on sticky keys is disabled (usually its press shift 5 times in a row.)

Thats how I solved it on my keyboard

control panel/ ease of access/ change how keyboard works/ set up sticky keys


thats where it is in win 7. uncheck those boxes

From that page (take it with a grain of salt, it's also early drivers) the 260 performs significantly better.
