[UCPennyWise]

Hello, i am also having this same freezing in World of Warcarft and CS:S. about 20 mins in i freeze also i tryed a stress test of video and other componets and it freezes when i try a 30 min test. but a 10 min test runs fine. i have tested memory with memtest86 + and its fine. i am at a lost as to what it could be. i have installed a new GeForce 8400gs graphics card to replace the one on the motherboard and both do the same thing. so its not video.

any help would be great i am so stressed its not funny anymore.



i have aXFX nForce 630i with Geforce 7150 with integrated Graphics, with a Geforce 8400gs 16x PCI Express card installed all updated.

i have 1GB DDR2 ram i have another 1GB DDR2 ram on order, i have tested it with memtest86+ and it says its fine.

i have a 500GB hard drive

a wireless-G PCI adapter NIC

Hey,
Two quick questions:
1. Do you overclock your system at all? - this could cause the system to freeze
2. Have you disabled the integrated graphics in your BIOS after installing the new card?

[UCPennyWise]

no i do not overclock

and yes i disabled the integrated graphics in your BIOS after installing the new card?

Tried updating drivers for everything? And flashing to latest bios on motherboard?

Try one stick of ram too - i've often seen freezing due to dodgy/too high clocked ram. On that note, have you correctly set your ram timings and volts?

i have updated everything, and have flashed BIOS as well. i only have one stick of ram atm. im not sure how to set the ram timings and volts? any help there would be good, but its also not just gaming it will stop when its just left on for to long.
