Solve : Computer freezes during gameplay? |
|
Answer» Wassap, been awhile since my last posting. Got a new problem. Just bought a new mobo, processor, and ram. Amd Athlon XP 2.20ghz and 1gb of ram. Mobo brand is Gigabyte. Anyway, everything runs perfectly, or so I thought. During gameplay, the game starts up just fine, but after awhile of playing, the system will freeze over and make me hafta restart the entire system. What could be causing this issue?Not enough RAM, not enough free-space for the paging file to grow? I don't have any games on my computer. Get a good FPS for therapeutic help. Update Windows, directX, sound & video drivers. Check the game websites for fixes & patches. Test your ram.Okay, heres my specs: 2.20 Amd Athlon XP (Socket A) 1gb of Ram (2x 512mb Geil sticks, cas lat 2.5) Gigabyte Mobo (supports 3gb of ram, socket A)00 256mb ATI Radeon 9550 AGP 500 watt Ultra X-Connect 80gb Seagate Hdd Dvd-rom 16x read dvd/ 48x read cd Cd-burner 52x read/ 52x burn/32x re-write And temps really arent the issue. Ive got 3 exhaust fans( 2x 80mm, 1x 120mm), 1 INTAKE (80mm), a cpu fan (5600 rpms), a video card fan(6000 rpms), dual hard drive fans, and my POWER SUPPLY has 2 built in. I just moved everything off the drive I had my games on, reformatted and repartitioned the drive, and I still get the same problem. I tested the ram but it showed no errors what so ever. Im seriously stumped on this freakin problemAre you overclocking that system by any chance ? ? Those specs should be more than enough for gaming. P.S. What game does this occur in or is it all games... patio. Its in every single freakin game I play! Currently, heres where I stand. I just reformatted the entire partition, and reinstalled XP. i am still getting this issue...so what now?OH......and im not overclocked at all. Uninstall and reinstall all drivers of significance. Clean Windows installation using a registry, virus and spyware scanner, etc.That narrows it down... Heat Vid card problems PSU. patio. I just bought the power supply...500 watt Ultra X-connect psu. Other than taking two giant household fans and stickin em on either side of the computer...i think the heat is well taken care of. The video card is pretty new. Didnt have problems with it on my old mobo. Abit mobo with celeron clocked at 2.87ghz......so..i really dont know what to say. this is a Gigabyte mobo with an amd athlon xp clocked at 2.20ghz...so.....dunno.Programs running in the background........you need to keep systray/explorer.......dump the rest.......unless you are using this game via the net..... |
