    Game freezes in most games

    I have deleted and reinstalled my graphics card driver, and installed missing south bridge and sound drivers. I haven't yet run a disk check so I'll test crysis for a half hour and report back. I really appreciate your help guys and gals :)

    Thanks for the input. I gather you guys think it's a HDD problem. I'll run a disk check.

    It unfreezes from where it was.

    Game freezes in most games

    I forgot to mention the following:- -The freezes still display what was happening at the time of the freeze e.g. not a blank screen. - I cannot alt-tab, control-alt-del or escape in any other fashion, but when I hold control-alt-del during the freeze, when the freeze concludes I am then...

    Game freezes in most games

    Google avails me nothing in my diligent search for a solution to this problem. Since I got my new week-old gaming PC I have been experiencing crippling freezes when I play any PC game except World of Warcraft. I have experienced these freezes in Halo 2 for Windows Vista, Crysis 2 (rare), TES...

    It's a misspelling of gaming, or gamin'. Don't worry it's not my PC dedicated to gay pron, that's in the basement. :D:toast::D

    Gaming Rig advice volume II

    Link to previous thread: http://goo.gl/bOMap I need some more advice on my system. I have modified it wholesale since my last thread (I think the only remaining component is the CPU) if you can call adding and subtracting items from a wishlist 'Modifying'. I'd appreciate some more advice...

    Mousepads

    Thanks for the recommendation... I've been seeing stuff by ozone a lot recently but there's not a great deal of feedback going on for their products. That which I have seen though promises good quality and pricing, and the company seems pretty legit. Are they new?

    Roccat Greets Gamescom with Taito Kingsize MTW Edition Mousepad

    Don't say that, you evidently don't understand how light works. Also, given that the product is called BlueTrack, this surely makes reference to the fact that it tracks the movement of the mouse using a blue laser. How does it track the movement?
