Hi , I think part of my problem was because i installed a CPU cooler Coolermaster HYPER 212 , the four screws of this cooler (used to attach it self to the CPU E8400 ),have limited thread for the nuts , in other words the thread in the screws is not along all the way along the screw , ( the thread reach only half of the screw) when I was changing the thermal paste to put another paste with 88% of silver ,and realized that even if I turn properly the nut with a wrench , each of the four nuts reach the end of the thread in the screw , without having the possibility to pull enough properly the CPU cooler against the PROCESSOR (CPU), therefore my CPU was touching yes the CPU cooler ,but was not much pressure againg each other , I add a couple of metal washers in each of the four screw and now the situation is better ,if you have the standard cpu intel cooler , you cannot have this problem

I load the Silent hunter4 in the new sistem , and was a dream , running smooth , with the old nVidia 7300LE ,I got 5 FPS , with the new 8800GT I got 50 FPS amazing ,at full resolution

Hello, apparently this was the reason of my problem , but yesterday after playing half hour SH4 , after updating some drivers , I was trying again to play a little bit more the SH4 , but was not possible anymore , the PC was running normal but in the screen of the PC was given me some errors etc excuses when trying to play SH4(from the beginning this new PC was given strange noises from the optical DVD player ,the optical DVD player in my older PC is a dead silent Sony) finally I took out the SH4 DVD from the drive , and the DVD was severe scratched in the middle (before was brand new without any scratches) ,today I went to the shop where I bought the DVD player to change they told me to come back the next week to take a new one ,is only available another maker " Samsung "thank you very much for all your help and advice , thank you a lot

"optical DVD player" is rather redundant.
