Hello guys,
Here is my PC configuration:
CPU: Intel Q9550 C1 @ 2.83 with Thermalright Ultra 120 Extreme and 120mm Scythe SY1225SL12SH "Slipstream"
MB: ASUS P5E3 Deluxe WiFi-AP@n BIOS 1303
Memory: CORSAIR 4GB DDR3 1333 TW3X4G1333C9DHX with CORSAIR CMXAF1 Fans
PSU: Rosewill RX950-S-B 950W
Video: Visiontek ATI Radeon HD 4870 x2
Case: COOLER MASTER HAF 932
HDD: WD Caviar 2500 JS 250GB x2
OS: Windows XP Pro x64 SP2c
When I play GRID, The Sims 2, and World in Conflict PC freezes. Sound freezes and starts looping. Video freezes too and sometimes gets all messed up. I can't do anything. No Alt + Tab, no Task Manager. Nothing. I can only restart it by pressing the Restart button on the case. I have the latest drivers for everything inside my PC. I have the latest MB BIOS. Video driver is Catalyst 8.10. I even reinstalled Windows with full format. I still get the same problem. However, I can play Fifa 08/09 and COD 4 for hours and it never freezes (best settings at 1680x1050). I have tried manually setting my video fan to 100%. It still freezes. I played 800x600 resolution and it lasted longer than 1440x900 or 1680x1050 but still froze. I tested my memory using Memtest86+ v2.01 for 12+ hours and it didn't find any errors. What can be the problem here? Does it sound like my video card?
Thanks in advance!
