    How Long does your comp stay up for?

    My comp has been up for 15 days and 6 hours. Who else keeps there comp on for extended periods of time? I'm only interested in personal computers, not like webservers and such. What is the longest you think you have ever had your comp on withough crash or restart?

    Ussually stays running for about a month at a time, I think the record is like 38 days. Then I get bored with it try some crazy overclocking and it starts crashing about once a day. :roll:

                  mine gets turned off every night unless im downloading or something like that. when i used to play diablo 2 and bot all the time it would stay on for like 3 days and i would notice it start to get slightly sluggish so i would give it a break.

                        I actually need to reboot it I think. I think I clicked on "restart later" a few weeks ago when I installed an update.

                        As for servers, one I built hasnt been touched for almost 3 years now.

                            I used to leave mine on all the time, but now that it's 100* with no AC in my house I turn it off. Damn Prescott processor is like a fawkin' space heater. Literally.
