warning symbol

richlust · 1 Feb 2011 at 01:04

Hi folks been having some problems with my pc, keep getting a warning symbol in the top rhs of the screen, when this comes up in game (BC2) it is completely unplayable and i get massive lag spikes, i usually run ts3 also in game. I have not overclocked my pc but i sometimes use the turbo unlocker. I cannot open my pc as this will void the warranty and it is only 1 and a half months old, have run gpuz whilst playing BC2 and the graphics card gets to no higher than 60 deg C. i cannot find anything which explains this symbol and i was wondering if anyone could help explain what is happening and if there is a fix for it.

thanks

rich

heres a fix, uninstall it. problem solved.

on a serious note, check admin tools in control panel event viewer

event viewer local and see if you get errors or citical warnings.

google them and find out what they are

i found event 41 kernel power and found that it may be down to two audio drivers conflicting with each other so i have disabled 1 and i will see if that has cured it tomorrow,fingers crossed.

Thanks for your help martynpd

phone up the customer support for whoever made your pc, since you said you cant open it?

Run something like core temp to check the cpu temps, although if thats throttling it will show up in event log as a kernal power state, and say that its limiting its clock speed.

That looks like a burning application icon where you drop files onto it and it automatically burns to disc, that's if you have a blank disc in of course.

It's just an application.
