Title: Don`t remove my house and stuff
Post by: Wizzer on July 21, 2013, 19:43
Hi
I don`t know if this is the right place or not but my video card broke down and right now I cant play San anymore...I might be offline about 40 days.  :(
Please don`t report me with inactive reason. I`ll try to be back as soon as I`ll get a new video card...

You have 60 Days until your assets are auto sold. I don't think Admins will evict you especially if this is your first " real " time being inactive to this extent. Good luck with your PC.

Another thing. You might want to send Admins a note letting them know the situation. You can contact Admins directely via this form: Here (http://www.forum.convoytrucking.net/index.php?action=form;n=8)

Good news, I fixed the video card...I have no idea what was wrong with it, I cleaned it and now it works well :D

Edit: It still wont work correctly. My games are freezing (Flatout2, TF2, havent tested San yet), I can play games like 15 min and then whole PC freezes, only solution: power off...I think its overheating but it can't be because I have 3 coolers (2 added by me):

P.S: I have NVIDIA GeForce 8600 GT
Anyone knows the problem? I need new Thermal Grease? Last time when I used it was a year ago...

Edit again: Yep its overheating, need new Thermal Grease...

Download HWmonitor (http://www.cpuid.com/downloads/hwmonitor/1.23.zip) and run it off the zip and tell what kind of temperatures you getting.
You shouldnt need to change the thermal grease on graphic cards or even CPUs every year or 3
That stock cooler looks pretty shit. Typical Nvidia

Without gaming I get 58C, Flatout2 with max graphic: 86C

Btw its getting worse, now my PC even freezes when im not doing anything...freezes and black screen is blinking...right now I removed the videocart to avoid this problem.

@ ALEX752 I better should buy a new PC, right now I have Optiplex GX620.

@ Ethan thanks, but I still cant play San right now.

Edit: I have almost the same story like here:
[spoiler]http://h30434.www3.hp.com/t5/Desktop-Lockups-Freezes-Hangs/Computer-stuck-at-black-screen-with-blinking-cursor/td-p/1222215 (http://h30434.www3.hp.com/t5/Desktop-Lockups-Freezes-Hangs/Computer-stuck-at-black-screen-with-blinking-cursor/td-p/1222215)[/spoiler]
But mine is not "stuck"
Anyways now you know why I cant play anymore...topic locked.
