Hi,
I didn't know where to post this, and I believe it's a hardware issue so I'll post it here, if this is incorrect, please move to the correct forum
Processor: Intel Core2Duo E7200 @ 2.53GHZ
Ram : Corsair 4GB Kit (2x2GB) DDR2 800MHz
Operating System: Windows XP 32Bit ( I only see 3070MB Ram because it's 32Bit )
Graphics card : Sapphire HD 3450 256MB DDR2 VGA DVI TV Out PCI-E Graphics Card
Processor info:
When running with just a couple of programs open: msn, iTunes, firefox, Windows Live Mail etc, it runs at 39°c on about 1% of the processor. (according to realTemp)
Graphics card:
When running a game, Portal, CoD1 etc, the temperature goes up to around 70°c which seems reasonable, but the activity goes up to 99%. I get no lag whatsoever, CoD1 runs perfectly with ~300FPS.
Cooling:
Coolermaster Elite 330 is the case I'm using, that provides the main fan which runs at 1200RPM, then the heatsink on my processor (stock) runs at around 850RPM.
Problem:
When running Call of Duty 1, it runs perfectly and doesn't have any problems with lag, 300+fps is average, but it "Randomly" crashes and comes up with "Send error report". I read around and apparently it's to do with have dual core processor, so I ran CoD1 and set "Affinity" to 1CPU - CPU0 and the problem still occurs, I tried using CPU1 instead and I have the same problem.
Could I have a Hardware issue or is it a problem with Call of Duty 1? The only thing pushing me away from it being a CoD1 issue is that my old PC which was pretty **** compared to this one would run it at 100FPS for up to 6 hours at a time without crashing where as this conks out after ~10 minutes.
Any ideas what's up with it? I just played portal for 3 hours and it ran perfectly, no lag and it was on high detail, however GPU Temp went up to 75°c and GPU activity went up to 99%, but still no lag, so I presume my hardware is running perfectly.
So yeah, any help?
