System Crashes in Battlefield 2 and America's Army

yllus, When I was previously working on the problem, what you've done really seemed to help my stability as well... but I wasn't "satisfied" having to slow down my system just so I could play the game. So I continued on. ** SKIP TO BOTTOM IF YOU JUST WANT POSSIBLE FIX ** As you can see...

ATI Tech Support 1-800 number?

Who you gonna call? Anandtech forums for answers, that's who. I don't have my card with me to register it just so I can call them about my card. I'll need number for later. Thanks all, Daines1

Is it really worth it to get a PS2 this late in its life?

It's been over 2 years now, but a while back I sold my PS2 to a friend. I was trying to get out of debt and such... but now I am looking good financially and want one again. There are many pros and cons for getting one this close to the PS3 release so I decided to come here. What are your...

Logitech Wireless Mouse / Microsoft Wireless Keyboard combo?

Excellent! Found a good deal on the Microsoft Keyboard/Mouse wireless combot and figured I'd bite. Only hesitation for me now is the fact that Microsoft JUST released their first redesigned Natural (wired) Keyboard 4000. No one is selling it yet, but I'm drooling already. So... go with an...

A+ Training

Head to your local bookstore and pick up the "A+ FastPass" book. It is small, compact, and too the point. I had the 900 page book and failed the test. Got FastPass and did great! It has enough information that if you memorize it, you'll pass. =) Daines1 P.S. I hated that test. Some of the...

Logitech Wireless Mouse / Microsoft Wireless Keyboard combo?

I currently have a Logitech MX 1000 Laser mouse and I love it very much. Since I cut the cord on the mouse, I have decided that I wanted to do the same with my keyboard. I am currently using a Microsoft Natural Elite keyboard. Microsoft released a dual package wireless keyboard and mouse a year...

System Crashes in Battlefield 2 and America's Army

Good to hear that some of you figured it out. Way to go. I've been able to play for some time now and it's been fun. Been. Last night I dropped all my settings to Medium so that the stupid OIL FIELDS map wouldn't lag my videocard so bad. I joined a 64 player server and was off killing. Well I...

System Crashes in Battlefield 2 and America's Army

To find the card's temp, download ATI Tool here. http://www.techpowerup.com/atitool/ You can do stress tests and overclocking if you want too, but I've found that my Sapphire X800 XT card does NOT like using that program to test it. Often will reboot the whole system. Let me know how...

System Crashes in Battlefield 2 and America's Army

Max, I did some more tests with it last night to verify the problem. I have been playing it well for a while and wanted to see what would happen if I changed a few settings. Let me give you the settings I can use to get it to work. Graphics Turned off Dynamic Lighting Turned off...

Watercooling: Does Waterflow speed matter?

Maybe not too technical, but here it goes: Say you have a water cooling system for a heat source (CPU, VPU, Car Engine). Would there be a point where the speed of water running through the system cause more heat than cooling? Would the friction of the water cause more heat than cooling...
