hi,
my pc used to run perfect with no problems but now all of a sudden, cant run many games and when i tried grid 2 (which used to run at highest graphics), it tells me that i need a athlon 64 or higher cpu, last couple of days my usage has been a bit high but wasnt serious till now, in bios CPU temperature at 30
SPECS:
Intel 8200 quad core 2.33GHZ
ATI 5670 1gb DDR3 GPU
6GB DDR3 ram
500watt PSU
 
Solution
thanks a lot guys but i got it sorted, my CPU was running on 1 core instead of 4 and i just updated my bios and re installed windows, its running perfect now thanks guys:D
Your system is quite outdated and you probably are due for an upgrade.

So games that you use to be able to run at high settings no longer run that way, or is it just newer games that you can't run? Your hardware is lacking if you are trying to play newer games. I will be more than glad to put a build together for you if you have a price range.
