I am have been having trouble with Balthazar lately, as far as not being able to go more than 2 days before having to reboot or else the machine reboots for me. I thought I had this resolved with the GPU info desktop widgets, but I guess not. I also noticed that the widgets/sidebar.exe might be causing the DPC latency after a day of uptime, and the audio clicks.

Gaspar finally working!

I finally got Gaspar working with having a BSOD every 4 hours. I had over a day of  uptime before I rebooted to install spybot. Turns out it was the killer drivers.

I had to uninstall and reinstall Chrome to get it to show my saved passwords, and after a reboot it seems to work!

Ok, so I was validating the last C backup in Acronis True Image, while copying files with Roadkill's Unstoppable copier from C to S when all my open windows started freezing up, first with explorer, the weather channel, and that horlanger desktop clock. I did a hard reset, and everthing seems ok, S' raid array is being rechecked, with 4 parity errors, hopefully from the copy operation.

I restarted Balthazar at 10:30 to hopefully get a fix on what's causing the occasional audio pops, which are much less frequent then before, and it seems the pumps didn't kick on, so I shut down and restarted right away, before the raid 5 array even initilized, and the temp sensor seems to have reset, as best I can describe it. It flashed the temp off then on again, while the green background was still lit.
