Patgod Posted July 30, 2001 Share Posted July 30, 2001 Running win2k w/ geforce 3 asus A7v mobo intellimouse explorer my IRQ's are fine(have tried both using ACPI and standard PC to be sure) but every 5-10min the game simply hard locks, requiring a reboot. all drivers(and i do mean all) are updated, the computer is well kept, no old drivers lying arround. you get the picture. so whats up? anyone having this problem. anyone got a fix? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest ckoharik Posted July 30, 2001 Share Posted July 30, 2001 Running Win2K/Geforce 3 (12.41 drivers) Soyo K7ADA Logitech Optical Works fine with the notable exception of the corruption of text with FSAA enabled. The game has run for hours on end with nary a problem. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Schrullenhaft Posted July 30, 2001 Share Posted July 30, 2001 What sound card/chip do you have ? I'd suggest disabling ambient sounds at the beginning and see if this allows you to play for a longer period without lockups. Are you overclocking anything, such as the CPU or video card ? You say that your IRQs are fine, is anything sharing an IRQ with your video or sound ? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doug Beman Posted July 31, 2001 Share Posted July 31, 2001 And, of course, let's not forget the old adage that "the newest drivers are not necessarily the best drivers." Gad I could just SCREAM when I think of the nastiness I endured while trying to change drivers in my old Elsa ErazorII card.
