New Build Freezes with Games
specs:
AMD Athlon x2 5000+ Brisbane CPU 2x1GB RAM 160GB SATA Seagate HDD MSI ATI Radeon RX2600XT Diamond GPU 450W PSU S-Series GA-M57SLI-S4 Mobo Windows XP SP 2 Screen Resolution at 1280x960 (19" Hanns-G JW199D LCD Monitor) Now, I've updated every driver I am aware of, and updated the BIOS. However, whenever after about two minutes into any game, mainly Dawn of War: Dark Crusade, Half Life 2: Deathmatch, and Half Life 2: Lost Coast, the game freezes up and I see green pixels making a spiral pattern on the screen. The sounds continue to work along with mouse movement, but the screen is locked and I'm forced to restart the computer manually. Any help? Last edited by Ducttape21; 05-06-2008 at 05:17 PM.

Re: New Build Freezes with Games
Well, got to the top of the cliff on Lost Coast and it froze and then BSODed. I might try using lower settings this time, but that's the farthest any game has got so far on this computer.

Re: New Build Freezes with Games
Does the BSOD flash onscreen before rebooting?
To see the BSOD without the computer restarting, go to Control Panel > System > Advanced tab > Startup & Recovery Settings button > System Failure and remove the checkmark from 'Automatically restart'. Next time the game crashes to a blue sceen, post back with the full message and Stop Code.
