My clanmate had this trouble recently.

It was caused by spyware that was not being detected by his anti-spyware software.

Try getting a program called Spybot - Search and destroy, it picks up stuff that Ad-Aware does not :/

BenSpazz · 01-24-2005, 07:27 PM

like i said ive tried everything, ive even defragged my harddrive, wiped it clean, and i still have trouble with it, but ill try.

mrhahn · 01-24-2005, 07:29 PM

Does it happen when you play other games? It could be a problem with your graphics card - you'd only notice it when trying to play a game (because that's when the most load is put on the card).

Woo hoo!

Dick_Justice · 01-24-2005, 10:07 PM

Well, I had a similar problem a few weeks ago.

It started with my BF crashing to desktop after a few minuits. I really had no clue what it could be.

I tried out other games, some worked alright, others crashed (like BFV).

It turned out the cooler of my GPU was put and had stoped turning. It was a simple fix after all the hassle I went through formating my PC.

BenSpazz · 01-24-2005, 10:25 PM

well how do i kno if thats the problem, and if it is how do i fix it??? i think that might be it. cause one of my other games does it too.

TitanSound · 01-24-2005, 10:56 PM

I would imagine you should take the side cover off your PC and have a look at the GPU fan to see if its spinning or not.

Spinning = Yay!

Not Spinning = Nay...

As for the fix I will let someone else answer that :P

Dick_Justice · 01-25-2005, 12:28 AM

^Someone give this man an award !

BenSpazz · 01-25-2005, 04:13 AM

both fans r running fine, so ne other suggestions? :/ i need my BF games!

o and just to clear things up, this hasnt just started, ever since i got it it has not right, it seems like its better on sum days then others. and it only happens during online play.

NavalLord · 01-25-2005, 04:16 AM

go to your nearest gun store, buy a cheap shotgun, but large calibur, take your computer out back and set it up on a log or something, but make sure your not facing any other houses, load your shotgun and take aim at your computer, blast the living shit out of it as many times as needed, buy a new computer
otherwise i suggest calling EAs troubleshooting

BenSpazz · 01-25-2005, 11:42 AM

ok navallord, there our 3 problems with ur suggestion, first of whisch is, shotguns dont come in caliburs, the come in gauges. second of which is i live inside town limits, its illegal to discharge a weapon here. and third of which is i have NO MONEY! lol.
so i think ill call the troubleshooting, lol.

o and i already have like i think 7 shot guns,three 12 gauge, three 20 gauge, and a 10 gauge. lol.

what ever just call EA, if they dont help use the 20 gauge, but go to some woods

BenSpazz · 01-25-2005, 10:44 PM

20 gauge is the lowest power of the 3, 10 gauge would be the most powerful. lol. learn ur guns. lol.

grim reaper · 01-25-2005, 11:00 PM

Gauges is one of those quaint little mesurments you wonder how it ever came in to existance.

To get the size of a 12 gauge gun you need to go and get 1lb of lead. Chop it into 12 indentical pieces, get one piece and roll it into a perfect spear. That is how big the barrel is. Totally weird.
