I'm sorry to all admins for this post, i wasn't sure where to put it. This might be a hardware issue, so i posted it here.
Anyway, I bought HL2 just after it came out. I never installed it until this afternoon. Now that i've got my RIG trick out, i figured it was time.
So here's the problem. Did the whole huge process of installing HL2. Run the game, start a new game, play for about 5 minutes and then I get an error message. "Memory could not be read." Click ok to terminate". So them I start HL2 again, same thing after about 10 minutes. Try running it again. Runs about 2 minutes and locks up PC crashes. Hardboot. Oh, all drivers are updated and current.
So now i search the web for same problems with HL2. I find a few forums where people are swapping RAM around in different slots. So, i try that, 4x512 Corsair XMS Extreme, (same problem).
I reinstall HL2 completely, same problem... I'm haven't a clue at this point.
Here's my specs:
DELL DIMENSION 8300
P4 3.4GHz
(2) 250 SATA SEAGATE HDD's w/NCQ
(4x512) Corsair XMS Extreme
Sapphire Radeon X800XT PE
SB Audigy 2 ZS
Windows Xp Pro SP2
All other NEW games run amazing at highest resolutions without a hicup. (DOOM 3)-(UNREAL2k4)-(FARCRY)
Anyone have a clue?
