Hi,
My pc has recently decided to start freezing about 1 minute into playing a game. This isn't the case for older games like Evil Genius or Darkest Hour, but Skyrim (which used to run beautifully) now freezes very quickly into the game, as do other games like Far Cry 3 and Need for Speed. Sometimes the game will only get fps of about 15 and stutter about and then freeze, sometimes it gets ~60fps and then freezes. Any help would be most welcome
My system info:
Intel Dual Core E8400 @ 3GHz (CPU)
4GB 800MHz (RAM)
500GB (HDD)
Asus P5B Deluxe (Motherboard)
Ati 7770 1GB (Graphics Card)
Windows 8 x64 Pro
