October 26, 200619 yr Hello guys. I've got a problem that hopefully someone will be able to help me with here.On certain games, my computer will freeze up and I have to do a manual shutdown. The games that have the most troubles are Call of Duty, Call of Duty 2, Red Orchestra, and Company of Heroes. This started happening a while back after I had updated my Nvidia drivers. Nvidia support claims that the newest drivers would have fixed this problem, but it didn't. Can anyone here help me on fixing this problem? (If it involves rolling back drivers, could someone please suggest a website, I can't find them on Nvidia's main site.)Or is this related to a different problem?

Ron,It's more likely to be related to the graphics card itself or to the power that card receives when it kicks into 3D mode. It also could be a number of other things but there is great reward in isolating the problem. Are you familiar with how to use a multimeter to test the voltages on your +5V and +12V rails? Let me know. It's very easy and a multimeter is cheap to obtain (even cheaper to borrow one). Thanks. [email protected]
October 26, 200619 yr Author I don't know how to use a multimeter.A dude on another forum said it could actually be CPU overheating, so I'm gonna try and test that for now.
