Hi All,

my friend told me that this site has good advices on system setup and troubleshooting. <--compliment

so heres the story...

the only game that I care on this planet is CS...CS and nothing more nothing less, but I keep on having some system lockups with an looping sounds when played over 30 or 50 minutes, My sys Specs are;

-E70f Viewsonic
-Soundblaster 5.1 live (updated driver)
-K7T266 MSI mobo
-256kingston ram
-AMD Athlon XP 1500
-NVIDIA Geforce 2 mx400 (27.30 niv det)
-maxtor 7200rpm 40g
-directx 8.1
-im using opengl for cs, i've tried using direct3d but have same results....ive used 640,800x600,1024 resolutions to the max 1280 something....but yet cs locks.

so far i've done the following.

-my friends told me that the lockups is caused by grafix card overheating...so i've already put a BIGASS 85cf fan on the side...but yet when play cs, cs locks again :sad: .

-read some forums, grafix card and soundcard has incompatibility stuff problems,,,to fix just download this download that...still cs locks :grin:ead: .

-i've read on iugn that to cure this problem, you need to bloody overclock your grafix card to a newer version,,,which im not gonna do because i just bought this system last month :confused: .

can anyone please help me on this, my skillz and future for the love of cs depends on your help. Thanks a million.
