This was a fairly new install, something messed up majorly a while back (I cant
remember what) so I had to reinstall, since the reinstall I havn't had any
interactin that caused a problem from my end that I havn't fixed.

motherboard is Arock A8V-VM SE

2gb ram

HD Maxtor 7y250p0

2 PATA DVD drives, and a PCI wireless card, PCI-E Nvidia card with drivers
versin 173. thats it.

As soon as I installed Ubuntu updates were applied.
