foamy Posted April 25, 2004 Share Posted April 25, 2004 I have been playing CM games for ages without any problems, now CMBO game just shuts down occaisionally when I either set a way point or use the scroll arrows. Anyone got any pointers on how I can start to trouble shoot this. I got Windows 2000, Ge force 4200 with the very latest drivers, Athlon 2600+; 147FSB giving 1685 Clock speed. 512 MB memory on a K7S5A MB 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Schrullenhaft Posted April 25, 2004 Share Posted April 25, 2004 You may want to return your FSB to a normal clock speed and see if that makes a difference. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
foamy Posted May 1, 2004 Author Share Posted May 1, 2004 Yes, I guess I should do the obvious, but it has been working just fine like this for many months. Why would it start to act up now?? Time for a new and faster Mother board I suppose.. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mike8g Posted May 1, 2004 Share Posted May 1, 2004 Some days ago I suffered from occasionally CMBO shutdowns, too. My solution was to reinstall the sound card drivers. Marcus 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
