Not again

[shivang222]

so i finally fixed the problem of my computer freezing (it was because of vista 64)

but now although it runs fine... sometimes i get the blue screen of death while gaming... usually when i play on high graphics, the game instantly stops the blue screen appears for a split second then the comp shuts off...
the games it happens on (crysis and cod4) are both fake and have cracks btw...

is this a hardware issue?

Hey there.

Looks like you've got enough power so my guess would be: something is overheating. Just a guess though but that's the first thing I'd check.

Then maybe drivers? Is this a new system ? If cabling is ok I'd check for hardware compatibility or their drivers compatibility.

check to see if your video card is overheating. I used a program called ati tools and found that my video card was overheating. when it did my system would just freeze and then go black losing connection to screen.

Well... you might consider trying legit copies of the game

And, we need stop errors to help. Go to Control Panel>System>Advanced System Settings>Advanced and click Settings in the Startup and Recovery box. Under System failure uncheck the box that says Automatically restart and hit OK.

Next time it blue screens, copy the stop error and post it here......

Wow, I know you don't want to be preached to but seriously, you have $3500 between two graphics cards and the processor....yet you're stealing games. WTF man??

I hate to be a jerk but I think it's kind of funny and that you're getting what you got coming to you.


So, my personal opinion aside, you're going to have to see what the errors are. Also make sure that you have the extra molex plugged in and powering the motherboard. Try dropping PCI-E frequency to 100MHz instead of the auto overclocked speeds that the 680i automatically sets.
