Overall Stability

So how stable is your system?

I just rebooted mine after 16 days and 7 hours because of a network setting change, but she was still running like a champ.

there isn't an option for what we need. The only reboots Bunni's, Mine and the PVR do, are the ones for software installs or updates. The DX's at home only get shutdown when I need to use the outlets in the garage. Other than that they run 24/7. The DX at the office never gets shut off. Oh and that good ole dual PIII runs 24/7 too. D2OL keeps all these machines up and going

Mine never gets shut down, either, just restarts for software updates, and the occasional safe-mode virus scan. Other than that, she runs 24/7.

Try the term "soft on." Very Happy

I have a couple d2ol boxes that haven't even been rebooted since the January windows update. Think

Hmmm

Now that I am having some electrical work done at the house we shouldn't have to shut any of the machines off. That is unless the main 200 amp breaker pops again.

How's your electric bill? Ever think about solar panels? Very Happy

oh if it were MY house I would be spending the 10-15k to get some solar panels up there. And actually the electric bills aren't that bad.
The electrician came out yesterday and ran two 20 amp circuits into the loft area to help support the computer gaming area. YAY no more worries of popping a breaker!! He also informed us that about the only reason a 200 amp main wil pop is if there is a surge in the incoming power, so we have no worries there with the power we are using.

Not too bad.
Im running 2K pro - needs a reboot every 2-3 days - though i try to reboot it every day. Or at least shut it down at night.
The fans and drives are are annoying even when on low lol.
