pagefile you need but hiberfil.sys is if you put your htpc in hibernation which you dont. Here is how to get rid of the hiberfil.sys file and disable hibernation: http://helpdeskgeek.com/windows-7/window...erfil-sys/


Yes, I have a Antec 300-65, I initially tried the stock PSU with the 135w a/c adapter that eskro linked to from ebay. I would get constant reboots, not even making it to the BIOS.

Am new to xbmc just started today i was using plex before. Plus i cant get 5.1 from media player classic and the same thing happens the sound comes and goes at least xbmc switches on my 5.1 tho
If you are not getting proper sound with MPC-HC, it's beyond XBMC problem then....

You might want to try this "High Definition Audio Codecs", and make sure to select the Realtek High Definition in Windows 7 control panel sound/playback and in XBMC settings/system/audio output and Audio Output Device WASAPI: (Realtek High Definition Audio)....

Did you get the 160w power brick with it or the 150w power brick with it. And did you make any hole at the back of the case to fit the 160w brick? .

MY RESULTS WITH A 350W PSU.......

Prime test it......

For about 10 min and it hits 45C in a 78F room...... and it's a steady 45C

Usually it will turn off now.... especially when I give it more heat with a blow dryer.....

NOW......

I did the blow dryer to bring the temps up..... I could never get passed 60C

NOW it was able to hit 70C ..... I could not get it hotter with my BIG SHURIKEN...... ( this is with the blow dryer)

So YES it is the messed up 65W PSU that comes with the case.....

Smile

It's time to PICO........ Nod

I got this 192w power brick to go with the 160XT picoPSU (also ordered on mini-box):

http://www.mini-box.com/12v-16A-AC-DC-Power-Adapter

right now i have it hooked thru the pci slot. I am hoping Dougie can make the slot cover with the right hole in it so i can secure the 4 pin mini-din jack to it for a cleaner look.
