well i just formatted for the third time since i started having these problems and so far HL2 is working just fine without any crashes.. I haven't installed any other games yet but things are looking good, the video card is still OCed but the bios settings for the mobo are back to default...
i've had my 9800 pro OCed to XT speeds about since the day i installed it, its overclocked through the bios and i've never had a single prob.... what would cause it to suddenly screw up?
I usually only install SP1 because I heard SP2 slows down some PCs and has other random problems... should I try SP2 anyway? And what do you mean by Chip. Accel.?
Ever since I recently formatted, I've been having tons of problems with my computer, mainly game related problems as follows:
Half Life 2 - Crashes as soon as it starts saying there's an error with HL2, the game still starts leaving the error in the background and is playable for about 5-10...
