ET freezes :O

by lahq • 31 Mar 2008, 20:36 • Journals
Well, as the title says i got some problems with my ET. It all started like 4 days ago, when my PC suddenly began to freeze while playing Et. Back then it was like once a day, but now I can't even play more than 20 minutes without a freeze, which makes my sound stuck and my PC isnt even responding, so that i have to reboot. Another strange thing is, that when my ET had frozen, I usually get a bluescreen when loging into windows. I'm pretty sure it has something to do with punkbuster (as usual). I changed pb_sleep variable and even tried a system recovery. It only happens while playing Et, since I tried other games, which run perfectly.

So my question is: Does anybody know how to fix it or got the same problem as me?


cheers

edit1: I scanned for trojans/viruses etc.,but none was found.

I had exactly the same thing like 2 years ago, it gave me like a 1 month procedure of checking every prog + every hardware part until i finally figured out the hdd was broken :\

so it _might be_ your hdd is broken, ofc there may be other things causing this, but i'm just trying to give some advice



edit: what's the chick's name on your profile?

I had it too a while ago, turned out to be ~15 trojan horses on my computer that were doing the trick. Try to scan for them, maybe it works for you too

if it works ok on non pb servers like ettv then its a pb prob relating to your graphic card.
I tried many ways of fixing it, nothing worked, but I got a new pc anyway so then problem solved........
