Game Crashing.

criti · 12-26-2007, 11:38 AM

I got new computer couple days ago and its crashing, freezing, not responding on my Silkroad Online, also crashing my BF2 all the time. Counter-Strike Source is working fine. So any help here?

**koala** · 12-26-2007, 07:51 PM

Please post your full system specs, PSU details and error messages. Have you installed the chipset drivers, device drivers, DirectX, etc?

Asus AM2 NF430 MCP DDR2 SATA2 GBL 6CH, AMD Athlon 64 x2 4800+ AM2 (65W), Buffalo 1Gb DDR2 667Mhz X 2, MSI GF 8600 GT PCIE 256M GDDR3 Shader OC, 500w power, Windows XP Home Ed. SP 2.

No error messages, battlefield 2 just keep crashing in 2-10mins.. Silkroad online Crash or Not responding after 2min. No problems with any other games yet.

........?

Ok, I download speedfan and its showing 2 Core's upper one is fine but the other one is burning... so what I need to do with that?

Switch off the computer and open the case. Post with with the details from the PSU label. Make/model, total watts, amps for +12V.

What are the rest of the temperatures and PSU voltages listed in SpeedFan? Take a reading at startup with no programs running and then again while playing one of the games that crashes. Comparing the 2 sets of figures will help find the cause of the problem.

It sounds like the CPU is overheating. Make sure the heatsink is firmly in position and the fans are all spinning.

Well, my english sucks, so I'll just try to fix this myself. Thx anyways for trying to help.

**koala** · 01-02-2008, 08:34 PM

OK, but if there's any technical terms I'm using that are confusing you, let me know and I'll simplify it.

Check out the heatsink, fans and power supply unit.

criti · 01-05-2008, 03:24 PM

I'm going to bring the comp back to store and let them fix it :)

heatsink, fans and power supply units all are fine. Temp1: 28C Temp2: 35C Temp3: -128C HD0: 37C Core: 21C Core: 48C Ambient: 0C. While im playing one of the games they are like Temp1: 30C Temp2: 35C Temp3: -128C HD0: 38C Core: 21-22C Core: 50-52C Ambient: 0C. Speedfan tells that Core 47C is fine but when it goes above 50C its shows that the processor is burning. + All drivers, newest DirectX installed. Also got now

Microsoft Visual C++ Runtime Library
Runtime Error!
Program: D\Silkroad\sro_client.exe
This application has requested the Runtime to terminate it in an unusual way. Please contact the application's support team for more information.

What does SpeedFan say for your PSU voltages, both at startup with no programs running and under stress from a 3D fullscreen game?

If your CPU is overheating, reapply some thermal paste and make sure the case fans are positioned correctly to pull cool air in from the front of the case and blow the warm air out the back.

criti · 01-07-2008, 01:11 PM

They putted all things together in the shop, so I think they are on right positions. Vcore1: 1,36V Vcore2: 0,00V +3.3V: 3,28V +5V: 4,87V +12V: 12,35V -12V: 1,71V -5V: -8,78V +5V: 4,76V Vbat: 3,07V, dunno if u asked those ^^'; and the last thing that I can see on SpeedFan is Fan1: 3096 RPM. While playing I think it was something like 4000..

criti · 01-10-2008, 01:01 PM

Still waiting..

Still waiting..... We need to compare the 2 sets of figures to see how your system copes with a graphically intensive game.

Have you done this yet?

8600 GT PCIE 500w psu
see if you can borrow a quality larger wattage psu to try in it
what is the brand of the psu that is in it

criti · 01-24-2008, 05:34 AM

Didnt understand what u asked for, The POWER is 500W.. I have pasted all I saw in Speedfan, so I cant tell u more.. I guess its same problem that this guy have, my games just crash much faster. http://www.techsupportforum.com/gami...-freezing.html
