Computer issue

(1/2) > >>

Xeniczone:
I had some friends come over and we set up a bunch of computers and started playing halo pc through the lan.

After playing for 30mins one of my friends said his game was pauseds so I when up to that part of the house where the computer was and looked at it and started doing some hardware checks. I felt the heatsink and it was cool and looked for anything missed place.

This had happened before but I got a new heatsink for it and it just started doing it again.

Can anyone help? I need this computer for halo toruments.

Jack2000:
have you checked the software ?

Lead Head:
Specs?

adiment:
check some software prog or the BIOS for temps. A cool heatsink during gaming can mean it's not making correct contact.

what do you mean by paused? it froze?

Xeniczone:
Specs:
Intel Pentium 3 933mhz
256mb ram
dvd-rom drive
20gb hard drive
1.2gb hard drive


Yes it freezes.

I know it has to be a hardware issue because I have tried multible OSes on it.
Here is a list of all the os I have used on it with the same freezeing result.
OSes:
SuSe Linux 10.0
Mandrake Linux 10
Windows 98
Windows XP
Windows Vista (beta 1)

All of them freeze for some reason so I think it is a hardware issues.
