Hi all,
I am not very bright when it comes to hardware issues. I understand enough to build a computer but not enough too know what is happening when it acts up.
I'd like to update my mobo chipset drivers. But I am unsure of which file at the website to download. I'll post my specs in a moment. My main issue is that my Games keep freezing, causing my whole system to freeze and it requires me to reboot the whole computer, which is not good because its happening so frequently. I am thinking it might be somthing to do with my GFX Card getting old, or not heated enough, but it might be my CPU too. I am sure both are getting enough power from my ANTEC 550watt PSU. Its very frustrating as you could well imagine.
Any help on either issue would be most appreciated.
