Hi all,
Just want to troubleshoot a problem.
I have a computer i built myself:
intel e8400
nvidia geforce 9800gtx+
4gig ram
Gigabye EP45 DS3L DDR2 motherboard
so, i built this system for gaming. initially it worked great, but recently it started having some problems. WHen i'm running a game, the pc will randomly crash, but here's the thing. the game doesn't freeze, instead, it sort of semi crashes where the graphics go haywire but i can still hear the audio. I can still use taskmanager to force shutdown the game, but this is getting to be a problem as I can't run any games! Can anyone help?
Thanks very much for anything you can give me!
EDIT: It just happened recently, and now i'm getting dots all over my screen even when i'm not running the program (they move around as I change different windows/scroll up and down in firefox)
