Hi guys, new to the forums.
I wasn't sure whether to put the threa in gaming or here. Oh well.
I first sent a customer service message to EA but no reply after 3days, so I guess I will try here. These forums always seem hlepful from what I have been reading.
Anyway, I have an overclocked 4200+ AM2 @2.7Ghz and an XFX 7900GS XT that I do not overclock. I like to play with my cousin and I usually talk to him over Skype or Vent. (Teamspeak audio quality just doesn't cut it for us). After 2-3 rounds, I hear this awful pixelated glitchy noise coming from my headphones/speakers. I freeze in game and I try to alt-tab out like crazy. Then my computer completely crashes (although fans are still running) and my screen goes blank. My temps for CPU seem fine (33c) but I don't know if my 7900GS is too hot :S (70c tops). When I run BF2 without Skype or Vent, It will still cause glitchy noises, but if I alt-tab out to Firefox or something, It will just lag like crazy and go back to normal. I reformatted recently to see if that would fix anything, but I guess not.
My other specs:
Asus M2N-SLI Deluxe
G.Skill 2GB DDR2-800
Fortron FSP 550W
Sound Blaster Audigy 4
Scythe Ninja
I have run orthos for 12hours with no stability issues. Any ideas guys?
