Some users have recently had their accounts hijacked. It seems that the now defunct EVGA forums might have compromised your password there and seems many are using the same PW here. We would suggest you UPDATE YOUR PASSWORD and TURN ON 2FA for your account here to further secure it. None of the compromised accounts had 2FA turned on.
Once you have enabled 2FA, your account will be updated soon to show a badge, letting other members know that you use 2FA to protect your account. This should be beneficial for everyone that uses FSFT.
Well, it took 40 minutes on the phone but BFG came through. No problem on the RMA. Sent the card off yesterday. They said the new card should arrive in 2 weeks.
No hassles.
I don't think it was overheating because the game would crash first thing in the morning after starting cold. And yes, I bought those parts. I will also be returning them as well. The MB wasn't opened and the other 2 were used for 10 minutes.
I saved myself a lot of grief by doing this...
I figured it out. I bought a new PS, MB and Video Card and swapped them one at a time. The new PS still caused lockups. The new video card (7800 GT) did not.
Time to RMA the BFG 6800 GT OC.
Thanks for the feedback guys.
This is really pissing me off. I keep getting lockups in COD ,COD2, Fear, etc. I have tried to reformat my HD, reinstalled XP Pro, got the latest drivers for video, MB, Audio, BIOS, Directx, etc. I even tried installed out nvidia drivers.
Still this system crashes over and over.
My specs...
