PC lockup

[agnes]

afternoon

ive had a bad WD 500gig strage drive for a while, even though it functions fine, it fails the WD diagnostics tool, i have had lockups in games and on desktop so many times recently, could this dodgy storage drive be the problem?

If your pagefile is on that drive, set it to 0MB or move it to a different drive, reboot and then set the pagefile back to its previous settings. This will re-create it.

I had a nightmare a couple of months back with a corrupted pagefile giving me really bad performance issues.

hehe! i did this after i posted, all sorted, thanks mate!!!!!!
