a few days ago, i pulled the trigger on a new sff build from newegg, consisting of a core i7-930, xfx-branded radeon hd 5870, 6gb of ocz gold ddr3 1600 ram and, of course, an asus rampage 2 gene motherboard. because of work, i had to wait until today to build it, and lo and behold, nothing shows...
i'm going off to college soon, so my current antec nine hundred-housed rig is going to be a bit large considering i'll probably have to move it around once a month for moving in/out of the dorms and lan parties (we have a pc gaming league, no big deal :cool:) and whatever else may happen. the...
...this time with oblivion: goty edition. a few weeks ago, i decided that i was going to see what windows 7 was all about, since a friend had offered to burn me a copy of the rtm release. now, a while back, i decided to make .iso images to use as backups in case i lost any game discs, which i do...

a few weeks ago i posted here about how r6 vegas was giving me problems with bluescreening and crahses to the desktop after maybe 5 mins of playing. now all of my other games are doing the same thing. crysis, cod4, oblivion, everything except cs:s. im using the latest and greatest drivers and...
this past weekend, i reseated the ram in my pc in an attempt to alleviate another problem that was causing most of my games to crash within 5 mins of starting them up. after reseating the ram, my pc now shuts off without warning anywhere between 15 seconds and 5 mins of turning it on. no error...
i just got this game a couple weeks ago, and for a while, i loved it. but recently, it has started to crash to desktop or bluescreen nearly every 15 minutes, and thats in the unlikely chance it even loads at all. like an abused spouse, tho, i still want to play this game, no matter how often it...
