My system specs are viewable so I won't bother typing them all out again.
The only things not in those specs is that I use a 650w PSU and a logitech EX110 Cordless desktop.
I use Windows XP Pro with SP2 and all drivers are up to date as of the writing of this.
Over the last 4 months I have litteraly changed every part of my machine trying to get games to run right so realy it's a totaly different machine now
My problem is this:
I have found very few games that will run without either the game crashing or windows going to blue screen and crashing totaly.
Some are new games that just came out while others are older games that should run with no issues on this spec machine.
and it's not consistent it does it with some and not others.
For instance if I play Farcry or NFSUMW then it will play for hours without issue.
But if I play C&C Renegade or Generals or play FlightSim 2004 it crashes the machine.
Other games like C&C Red Alert 2 just crash back to desktop sometimes with errors.
My machine is not overclocked and temps are fine so it's not a heat issue.
I have also not played with voltages or anything in the bios and my XP install has not been tweaked.
So realy I am looking for any advice anyone can give as to tweaks to windows or bios settings and the like that may help me to get my machine to run games stable
