I built a computer for my friend, and he's been having fun with it.
However, today he bought and tried to run Far Cry 4 and the game wouldn't load.
It just sits at a black screen and he has to hard reset the computer.
This is the only game he has had any issue with.
I've tried running every stability test I can think of and the computer passes them all.
I've ran Prime95 for over an hour, memtest86 for 2 passes, and let Heaven run for over an hour.
He's played other games hours on end with no issue.
But he is rather annoyed that his new game won't run, and kind of pointing at me since I built the computer.
Here are the specs:
Intel Pentium G3258 Overclocked to 4.0GHz
AsRock Z97 Anniversary
8GB(2x4GB) G.Skill DDR-1333
ASUS R9 270 Overclocked to 270X 1120MHz Memory Overclocked to 5800MHz
EVGA 430w Power Supply
Rosewill R5 Case
I've tried returning everything to stock speeds and the game still just freezes when he tries to load it.
I'm out of ideas.
