alright so just recently i had to reinstall vistax64 ultimate, everything went well got all the updates(had to mess around cause a few would not install properly) got all my drivers etc
so heres my problem my computer will run fine, not lock up at all etc but as soon as i try and play a game it runs for a random amount of time (usually less than 10 min) and it will just lock up. Ive tried searching for a solution all my fans seem to be working my video cards fan is working i took the side off my case to make sure it was not over heating, i think it may be my secondary hard drive ( i have a 40gb with vista installed which is my primary and a 250 partitioned into a 200 and a 50(for my old xp installation) but the 250 is whats causing it because i just recently tried to install World in Conflict but the whole computer locked up during the installation so i figured it was just a one time thing so i restarted and tried again but the same thing but every time it got a bit further till it finally installed then i tried to run it(not really expecting it to work) and it failed so i installed it on my C drive(with vista installed on it) and it installed fine i installed the latest patch and tried to play and it always locks up
Can anyone help me or give me some direction?
