Guest RET.CW4.ThievingSix=US= Posted January 26, 2011 Posted January 26, 2011 your pc is going to explode if you don't change the oil, :D But really your CPU might be a little slow other than that i can't think of anything wrong, but it sounds graphics card related

Guest RET.Realgrunt=US= Posted January 26, 2011 Posted January 26, 2011 Here is what is gonna help you. Get the disks for your game and rub them with 80 grit sandpaper. insert them into your disk drive then open the side of your computer. turn power on then run magnets over everything then spray your motherboard with clean tap water. That should fix everything.

I wish I would have read all the steps and realized you were kidding.....anyone want some sanded disks?!?!? :-P Seriously though right, are your drivers up to date?
Guest CC.Decayed=US= Posted January 26, 2011 Posted January 26, 2011 wont memory in 3 out of four slots mess up game play? Yeah it will probably lower the FSB, try removing one of the sticks.
Guest gamerk2 Posted January 27, 2011 Posted January 27, 2011 Yeah, by running 3 sticks, your actually cutting your memory bandwith in half; RAM should ALWAYS be matched.
Guest Ret.Maj.Xander=US= Posted January 27, 2011 Posted January 27, 2011 Wright your CPU supports Dual Channel memory. By having 3 sticks of RAM you are basically removing that speed feature. Remove one stick or buy a fourth that is the exact same.
Guest CC.Decayed=US= Posted January 27, 2011 Posted January 27, 2011 Even so, pretty sure with 775 you lower FSB if you go 4.
