Hello
My computer freezes only when playing games, all games. worms reloaded, fallout 3, fifa 11, GTA IV etc, it freezes maybe 5 - 10 mins into playing a game, the game will seem to be running perfectly and suddenly freeze, forcing me to turn off my computer by its switch because I can't acces task manager. I am defragmenting my comp as I type this, did a disc clean up just before it, this is the 1st step i have taken other that restarting my PC. It was working perfectly yesterday on two of the games I mentioned, and has been for 6 - 7 months. I will get the details of my comp if you need. I can/could run GTA IV on High settings if I wanted to fps wise since I bought the Graph card. I am happy to use a few days to troubleshoot I would rather not buy a new gfxcard hehe but if I have to I will, payday is 15th.
I am new, found this thread by searching Google, hope someone can help me =D
