The server is not in a rack, but sits on a desk on top of an eServer 235. I got the 325 for under 200 bucks and paid for the 235 just 80, which is inside my budget range. The only used desktop racks I could find were over 500$. And then I'd need to get the rails as well. I don't need more than...

No, that's not at idle, that is under heavy load. I run BOINC on it as this server is for hobby use only and only a handful folks make use of the web server. So rather than have it idle it can do some good deeds. Right now the temperature is typically below 60°C / 45°C and that is well within...

Hi! Just for someone who may stumble over this thread, using the BIOS version 1.36 (the latest available) I got the Opteron 250 OSA250CEP5AU to work. I had to put them in one by one, but eventually both got detected right. One of them runs at 63°C and the other one around 43°C 'core'...

Hi! No, this is only a dual processor, single core system. I just got a pair of 250 Opterons for cheap. Will see if those go with that box.

Yes, it has two Opteron 246 processors. See here: http://www-304.ibm.com/systems/support/supportsite.wss/docdisplay?brandind=5000008&lndocid=MIGR-53256 and also this (download page for 64 bit drivers for Server 2003 64 bit)...

Well, uninstalling the Rage driver and using only the base VGA driver did not improve things. I went ahead and installed Server 2003 32bit on the box and that now works rock solid for almost three days. The server was never 'up' so long before. My guess is that some driver either in XP 64bit...

Thanks vittorio! I had the 64bit Rage XL driver installed and for now deinstalled it and run the system with the base VGA driver from Windows. Let's see what happens.

Well, the memtest test didn't generate any errors, but I got new RAM anyway. I noticed that the RAM in the server was PC2100 from HP, not the original IBM and it was also not installed in the recommended slots. I got the original parts and tried those in the correct slots, but the flaky...

Thank you very much for your reply. There is no warning lighht and the server is barely lukewarm. There are no entries in the event logs. I do get some DCOM issues once in a while, but those events are hours away from when the system stalls. I can tell when it locks up, because the clock in the...

Hi! I have an eServer 325 with dual Opterons and 2 GB of RAM. I got it for cheap as a use unit and it generally works OK. I use it as a web and FTP server running Windows XP 64bit (which is the same as Server 2003 64 bit). My problem is that the GUI of Windows stalls after some time. Initially...

I tried Paradox 9 under XP and it crashes after random amounts of times for no particular reason. Even running it in different compatibility modes doesn't change anything (shows how compatible these modes are !). Any help about fixing this is greatly appreciated.
