:D well, i played for 4hrs straight last night, and not one crash, and thats with SEVERE underclocking of my card, but it still runs faster than my mates 8800GT.

BigTuna · 05-09-2008, 01:26 PM

All of your specs are really high, make sure to update you drivers and also u can try going to your steam consol, right clicking on the game, click properties, click launch options, and in the box type -autoconfig close the box and start the game, if that doesnt work if you havnt already there are loads of help in support section at steampowered.com

thekrazed · 05-10-2008, 12:36 AM

yeah, i found my problem. was infact that my GPU wasnt being supplied with enough power while CSS was running. Seems to get enough in COD4 tho. so thats a little wierd

Glad you sorted it out too krazed and thanks for posting back to say what the issue was.
