no windows is fine, i dont know temps of the card, it has no sensor, but i dont think thats the problem cause after the restart i immediately go on so there really isnt any cool down time
In oblivion i can be just running around and have 80C~ temps and as soon as i go into menu (ie press exscape) i get temps 30~40C. and if you have a slow reboot youll have plenty of time for a cool down hope that helps
I leave mine on for a month or two at a time... not the problem.
isn't the card you're running agp?
agp's overflow is the system RAM
That particular card is going to overflow on almost any game.
you obviously have a RAM issue, like allocated RAM not being cleared after programs are ended.
Like mentioned before, check to see what app/s (if not every app) is taking up all your ram.
Or you could increase your modules or module size.
