Hey guys having a bizarre problem I won't wall of text you so I will break it down to a few one liners but first of my system build.
Windows 7
Core i7 920
XFX ATI 4890 Catalyst 9.9
3 Sata Hard drives 500GB, 160GB and 250 GB
EVGA X58 SLI LE
OCZ Platinum DDR3 1600
Corsair 750 watt
Games freezing at random part no matter the game with the exception of Race Driver Grid at Maximum settings.
Crysis and Mass effect are the games that freeze up.
The way that they freeze up are hard freezes and I have to restart No way to toggle back to the desktop.
When they freeze you see a picture and still hear the sound for a while then it stops or stammers.
You would think it is the graphics card over heating but. All tests including using ATI tool and Video Card Stability test after 5 hours drive the temperatures from Minimum 56 C to 76 C on load with no lock ups.
Prime 95 was also run for 20 hours no lock ups.
Memory test was run with no errors.
Ran error checking on my hard drive no errors.
And as I have said before Race Driver grid works perfectly at 1920 x 1080 with 8 X AA played for 2 hours.
The other games freeze randomly varying from 1 minute to 10 minutes with no certain trigger to them just random even when just standing still.
I am hoping this is a driver Issue and Will be trying some DNA drivers, but hoping you guys have some more insight.
Thanks.
