Hello Guys
I have had my PC built for a while now about 2 months and have been quietly trying to resolve my issues with it.
I seem to have got rid of most of the problems but one still persists.
Running Battlefield 2142 the game can run for 20 mins and then crash straight to desktop. Maybe BF2142 is a crash prone game but I cant beleive its the cause.
I have installed all the latest drivers on all of my components, I have not missed one out trust me.
I have stress tested the system with Prime95 running two instances and though my E6300 is overclock to just over 2.8Ghz the CPU never gets 57 degrees.
Can anyone reccommend a way forward.
The only observation I have made that I am unsure about is that my P5N-E Sli mobo the north or south bridge (the one with teh heat sink) when I touch the heat sink it is hot to the touch.
How can I stress test my GPU? I tried the Nvidia Ntune stress test but it seems a weak test to me. However it passed this easily.
I am even defraging my HDD as I type this to see if that improves anything.
Please help me, I am going crazy!
