rFactor/9800 pro
Anyone running it without constant reboots or ctd's with this card? It
happens in menus, on track , wherever. Hell. . . I was just thinking about it one time (jk ;-) Thanks, DN |

No problem here, so far. I'm using the latest Omega drivers if that helps.

I cleaned all the fans, vents and heatsink fins with blasts of compressed air and it's good as gold now. Try getting a temp monitoring utility and then running the program. Jump out and check the temps. Good luck. dave henri e |

The first time I ran it it crashed but it has been fine for the past 2
hours. Great game. "Dino" > wrote in message ... > Anyone running it without constant reboots or ctd's with this card? It > happens in menus, on track , wherever. Hell. . . I was just thinking about > it one time (jk ;-) > > Thanks, > DN > > |

Thanks for all the input, I had a heat issue back in the summer but a new
fan / copper heat sink and arctic silver paste on my XP2500 brought the temps down considerably . . . MBM showed 43c right after one of the ctd's. I noticed there were some AMD owners reporting similar problems in RSC's forum so I probably blamed the wrong piece of hardware.

To follow up and complete this post, the ctd's/reboot's i experienced were
due to my XP2500 being overclocked to 2.0 gb from it's default 1.8, a few hrs. at stock clock with nary a problem Now that I've had a chance to log some seat time I'll give my mini-review..... Netcode is very promising ;-) DN "Dino" > wrote in message ... > Anyone running it without constant reboots or ctd's with this card? It > happens in menus, on track , wherever. Hell. . .

But with cpu's running 30x as fast...an overclocking of much more than the then huge 5mhz gain, results in a comparitively smaller increase. I'm not picking on you Dino, just commenting on the existence of OCing at all in these 2 to 3ghz days. dave henrie |
