Serious Problems with new hardware

THF hello,

Few days ago I purchased a new system:
Gigabyte P35 DS3
Intel E6750
G.Skill 2 GB 800Mhz CL5
Thermaltake Toughpower 600W
Asus GeForce 8800 GT [not the OC version]
WD 160 GB AAKS

Windows SP2 [No Updates] and then Windows XP SP3
Most Recent Nvidia Beta Drivers, it was all same even with the normal drivers.

As you can see the parts are good, all have passed QC and have been puchased from a retail store.

Now the problem, it apperas in 3 games i play: Crysis, Unreal Tournament 3 and Call of Duty 4.
I play the game for a few mins sometimes it goes up to an hour, after that the game crashes to windows
as soon I press the "Don't send" error button i get a blue screen saying: "PFN_LIST_CORRUPT".
Also Battlefield 2, Counter Strike Source, Half life 2, and Enemy Territories Quake Wars,
all work perfectly the problem appears to be just in the 3 games I mentioned.

Now from some short googling i stumbled across a weird fact that,
some people with GF8800GT get similiar problems.

Please help me out here,
Thanks.

already did
going to try with kingstone ram later today

all games except Crysis Cod4 and UT3 work perfectly, thats what makes it weird.

have anyone stumbled across the problem with 8800GT ? because on some forums people with this card have some issues mybe its the chipset, but then, recent drivers update would fix it?

thanks for the quick response

could it be the PSU?

maybe this is M$ new way of getting you to send the report?

Hmm... looks like they actually made the 8800 GT card pretty darn close to its GTX counterpart this time. The clock speeds are only 30 and 100MHz different from the GTX version. That is not something I am used to seeing. I had to look of course.. hard to keep up with every latest card out there

Other than checking every possible driver you have.. including your motherboard drivers .. not sure what else it could be. Have you tried wiping windows and reinstalling? You seem pretty astute.. hopefully its just the RAM causing it. PFN list corrupt is a strange one. The more I read about it the less there is it seems to do to correct it.

Like the guys said, it might be your RAM or VRAM. Try with other RAM if you have access to it. But it could be other things.

First, I need to know:
1- What OS are you using?
2- What Soundcard are you using? Have you installed your latest sound drivers?
3- Are you using wireless network? Which model is is?

If you are using Windows 2000:
* Uninstall / reinstall Videocard drivers
* Uninstall any backup/backtracking software on your system
* Disable some background applications such as system filter drivers, such as backup utilities, virus scanners, or firewall software

If you are using Windows XP:
* Uninstall / reinstall Soundcard drivers
* Uninstall / reinstall Videocard drivers
* Uninstall / reinstall wireless adapter (with the original disk drivers - not the latest)
* Disable some background applications such as system filter drivers, such as backup utilities, virus scanners, or firewall software. However, keep your drivers file open (do not end task them).

Answer these questions...and I can try to help you further.

Good for you,

Now, go on and enjoy your new rig!

Would go for OCZ Reaper myself if you have the space above them, my Thermalright Extreme 120 has next to no clearence over ram so check it out first If you have an aftermarket cooler.
