CounterStrike hanged on me!

[aloozer]

Hi everyone..

I was playing counterstrike halfway when the game hanged on me and the headphones i was wearing emitted a very sharp, constant, high-pitched sound!
What's the possible cause??

my pc specs...
cpu : p4 2.8c ghz..running with stock fan
mobo: msi 865pe neo 2 series
psu : antec truepower 480w
sound card : creative ..audigy
gfx card : msi fx-5200..(entry level lah)
1 s-ata + 1 p-ata + 1 cd-rom + 1 cd-rw + 1 floppy drive..

pls advise,
thanks..

Your post implies this happened once. My answer therefore is that your computer probably wasn't in the mood to play CS:S and decided to crash to give itself a break. It's quite a common prob with lazy computers.

for cooling, i have no fans, not including the PSU fans and CPU HSF fans of course. heh

alrighty, open the side on your case and see if it does it again. thatll let more air to your cpu and vid card. if it doesnt happen when the side of your case is open, you have a heat issue.

is this the only game that this happens to?
