All games freezing (solved)
I have just built a pc here are the important specs:
2400xp Athlon xp
Abit NF7V2.0
20 gig hard drive
256 megs of ram
Geforce 4 ti 4200 64 meg
Os: Windows xp with service pack 1
When I first installed windows everything appeared fine, the system was fast and stable and I tested a couple of new games on it.
The problem starts after around 30-50 minutes of playing on a game. But I can easily end the task and win xp runs stable. I first thought it may be cooling I checked the temps and the cpu was running at a cool 45 degrees. All games from shoguns basic graphics to the newish splinter cell freeze or even restart the pc.
I have reinstalled graphics/nforce drivers, direct x, updated the bios and checked all the cmos settings made sure the processor is set at 2400.
Can anyone help me out? Its def not a cooling prob.
