  • Yeah so about me being back.. help

    Ok I was using a radion 9700 but then my quake froze my whole computer and other games too so I switched to a gforce3 and guess what... still does it. I dont think god wants me to play quake anymore to be honest. Any advice?

    Well its obviously not your videocard, and thus... is basically anything else on your machine short of your monitor. Got any more details than that ?

      Yes ... use WinProQuake instead of GL until you can figure it out.

        If everything's freezing it may mean you're processor is bad. I reccomend taking your computer out to the back of the shed and shoot it with a double barrel, watch the sucker fly (except for the hard drive, you need that lolz).
        I would start saving for a new machine. Alsokeep the video card, and any "drives" you may have (such as a dvd burner, dvd player, cd burner, cd player, floppy disk, super disk, and any additional plugins I.E. additional usb ports).

          lmao win proquake. I doubt there's a problem on his hard drive. It sounds to me like his processor is ready to commit computer suicide, then again, I could be wrong.

            While it's true that his problems may be related to unstable hardware (cpu memory mb), if this is the case it sounds like it's only seen when his computer is doing something more intensive (games). WinProQuake takes about as much cpu as browsing around in XP, so it would be smart to just use that till he figures out what's up.

              It could possibly be time to buy a new graphics card. Preferably 1 with a fan...

              16:03:30 <gb> the fact that only playtesting tells me that probably means that my mind is a sieve

                    QFT means Quoted for truth. It was purely unnecessary.
