Battlefield 2 causing computer to reboot.
Hello, I have WinXP SP2, P4PE motherboard, P3 2.53 and an ATI X850 pro.
Software I have logitech mouse, keyboard and joystick drivers, Soundblaster Pro, Symantec Anti-Virus, and Zone Alarm Pro. My BF2 was running fairly well (a very occasional crash) for about 2 months, then suddenly a few days ago it started to cause my computer to reboot. It now reboots approximately 1 out of 3 times it loads a map. The reboots usually come right after a map is loaded, otherwise it runs fine. I ran the memtest and chkdsk with no problems. I'll attach my minidumps. I did not alter my system at all before this started happening. Thanks for any help! |

Hello and welcome to Techspot.
All your minidumps are crashing at IdeChnDr.sys. This is the driver for the Intel Application Accelerator. This is a known issue on some systems/configurations. Uninstall the above application, and let us know the results. Regards Howard ![]() Last edited by howard_hopkinso; 11-01-2005 at 10:22 AM. |

Hey Howard thanks for the quick reply!
Well I uninstalled the IAA and played a game of Battlefield 2. There was a noticable slowdown from uninstalling the IAA. So, I went ahead and reinstalled it. It's been running great ever since. Thanks again! |

Hello.
I think I have similar problem. Also computer reboots at the end of the map loading - quite often. Although I don't get any minidumps (or I just don't know how to get them - I hope I have this activated but there is no "%SystemRoot%\Minidump" dir where it should be ).My computer: Athlon XP-M 2500+, Abit nf7-s 2.0, Gigabyte 6600gt AGP, 2x512 MB RAM, just bought Creative X-fi Platinum (can IT be the problem?). System WinXP SP2 Temps, voltages are OK for sure. Prime95, memtest, etc 100% OK. Could you please give me any hint? Thx in advance! |
