Hey Guys,

I have a problem with my computer. It locks up for no apparent reason when either a) starting a new game (COD2, FEAR, Americas Army) or cool.gif clicking through menus c) loading new maps to start. For the most part I can't remember it doing it once I've been in game. Never have any kind of problems at all once I start playing. I have a Intel Core 2 duo 6300 and a evga 7950 GT KO 512 MB video card if that helps any.

Thanks for any help or suggestions guys.

Junkie

When you say it "locks up" do you mean that it stalls for a few seconds when loading a game or map, or that a game or program totally hangs and you have to get the program or game to quit (how do you have to do it?) and then all is fine, or that the computer will not respond at all in which case does it come back if you hit your reset button, or do you have to do a cntl-alt-del reboot, or do you have to power down and back up?
