im fine with vehicles staying as long as xcaliber doesn't team kill me by collapsing a building on me with a tank

Dstraktd - So, what now? (I'm not gonna shave Chile's nipples, I do have some kind of standards) don't worry about that...there's a long waiting line for that. so you won't have to do it any time soon.

lol love the comment on the video: "This should be an olympic sport. Fuck figure skating.?"

make it have cobra knifing his wife in the back

problem fixed. got a new, more powerful PSU. been playing BF3 and COD4 for 5 straight hours. not one issue. computer seems to be running faster too. i cant thank y'all enough for your help. this has been driving me crazy. but i did learn a ton of stuff. thank you again.

"you have 10 seconds to get the hell off of my minefield, boy" god damnit lmao love it

i tried just having the graphics driver alone. failed tried graphics and physx. failed. tried graphics, physx, audio. failed tried it without all the 3D driver stuff. failed tried each stick in every slot and in every combination. failed every time. don't know anything about overclocking or underclocking. no idea how to do it. not sure how to run the memory on higher latencies. mobo is up to date already. something on the box in small type i saw before and posted is: "minimum 450W or greater system power supply with a minimum 12V current rating of 24A" (which my power supply meets with 650W and 12V rating of 25A) far below it is a note in font so small i never noticed it and i had to use a magnifier is "Minimum system power requirement based on a PC configured with an Intel Core i7 3.2GHz processor" never saw the note before, and it is no where to be found online. but i don't have an i7. i have an i5 3.2GHz. Might that be an issue?

ok, got an update i had a really shitty day and it was all my fault. did too many stupid things. so i get home, and start drinking. while im sitting there and the room is spinning, i decide "hey, i should reload the OS, that will fix everything" WRONG! same issues either the game still freezes up and have to restart comp with power button or while in game, sound goes away and im left with a buzzing in my headphones and i walk around with no weapons or gear, the game locks up the comp. tried running at lowest video settings. tried running without antivirus running so it has nothing to do with the old vc and its ATI drivers. thats the only thing i am sure about now, after all that fucking work. this is everything that is loaded atm: **added adobe reader after pic was taken** any of those gonna cause an issue?? i wouldnt think so, but i dont know. someone suggested checking the memory sticks. just want some clarification on that. this is the info in the mobo user guide on the memory. i have my sticks in A1 and A2. what would i do to check them? where do i move them to? i wouldn't think it would be the memory sticks. before i changed the VC, i could run COD4 no problem with those sticks. but now, with the same sticks and new VC, bad video lag and freezes in COD4. but i guess its worth a try to see if it is them. or i can just do this, which is what im leaning towards.

welcome back

Darth Yoda Check for compatibility between ram and videa card. You'll have to go to the mobo website. what exactly am I looking for? I am looking at the mobo and vc specs, and i am not sure what compatibility you are talking about.

ran Driver Sweeper. removed all of the AMD driver stuff. uninstalled the NVIDIA drivers. restarted. installed NVIDIA drivers and updated them. ran the game, still had the same issues. tried the beta driver, same issue. also tried bf3 without antivirus program running, no luck. the amps on the 12V rails is 25. VC wants at least 24. giving up for now. gotta do other work. will try testing the ram sticks later.

idle, the card is about 40 C in game, up to about 60 C

Nutcutter Did you do the ATI uninstall utility? Its sounds to me like you got other drivers in there. Another good place to look in in your event viewer. i did not know about that uninstall utility. so i ran it just now. but after restarting my comp, the utility still shows up in the list of programs, so im not sure if it actually did anything. tried BF3 again after "running" the utility, and still got the same issues. so i guess it didn't do anything. not sure what i am looking for in the event viewer, or even where to look in it. the only error i can find around the time of a comp crash is this: Microsoft Antimalware Real-Time Protection feature has encountered an error and failed. Feature: Behavior Monitoring Error Code: 0x80004005 Error description: Unspecified error Reason: The filter driver requires an up-to-date engine in order to function. You must install the latest definition updates in order to enable real-time protection.

tsw 8.5 what power sp are you using .and what are the temps on the card .. thats the power supply. 625W. the video card requires at least 450W http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16817194027&Tpk=EMD625AWT not sure how to check the VC temp.

Nutcutter What was your old card? ATI Radeon HD 4870 512 MB http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814102810 had no issue with it and COD4. Wouldn't run BF3. game would tell me I need a new card, even with the updated drivers. "can you run it" also said the old card didn't even meet minimum specs for BF3.

Just got a new video card in hopes of being able to play BF3. video card - NVIDIA geForce GTX 560 (brand new - just got it a few days ago) MOBO - Asus P7P55 (had for about a month) CPU - Intel Core i5 CPU 650 @ 3.20 GHz (had for about a month) RAM - 8 GB (had for about a month) OS - Windows 7 64-bit have DirectX 11 (diagnostic says it is working fine) Issues with BF3 (wasn't able to even run the game before i got the new VC) Can You Run It? website says I can run BF3. -sometimes sound will go away and i am left with a buzzing sound, then blue screen, comp restarts and hangs up on reboot. -will spawn without any gear, then sound goes away, comp freezes up - ctrl-alt-del doesnt work -sometimes spawn without gear but game doesnt crash, and gear appears after 30-40 sec. -random comp restarts i can play for maybe 5-20 minutes at a time. ive tried playing without xfire. tried IE, firefox, chrome. drivers are up to date (v. 285.62). even tried the beta driver (v. 290.36) tried the lowest video settings in game. tried video card in different slot on mobo tried reinstalling bf3 crashes happen on all servers and game types tried reinstalling video card and drivers tried the solutions in our BF3 forum but nothing works. tried reinstalling PB Issue with COD4 (never had any issue until I got the new VC) Tried playing COD4. Get CI's and video lag/freezes like never before. no video problems except with the games. I dont know what is wrong. maybe my new video card doesnt want to work with the rest of my computer. any ideas?

amen

Sonovabich It's not you in your best frock is it Dean lmao

lmao

RogueKill Hey Chili, I'Lll get you one of those balls where you can put the square piece, The star, the triangle and the octagon inside----that should keep you entertained for awhile LMAO. +1

Exe Like Jacko just said the server, after Killstreaks we can't defroze from distance sometimes (many times). This one is really a big problem on a freezetag server lol the defrost problem occurs after CI's sometimes, too

lmao
