I bought a JETWAY GF4 TI4600 and throw out my GF 256. But now iam getting strange freezings with the new card
The card works very fine and i get all the framerates i should get. But suddenly, everything freezes and and stands still for 2-5 seconds and then start to run again. Iam using the latest drivers (29.42). The computer worked fine with my old GF board, so iam wondering if there are any changes you can make in bios or in windows to get it work as smooth as it should work.
Suggestions??
AGP settings:
agp apparture size: 256Mb
agp speed: 4X

is your hd crunching during this "freeze"
OP
No, the hd is not working at all. Its like the whole computer is waiting. The only thing that runs fine during the freezing is the sound.
^^^^
this happens to me now and then in Grand theft Auto III
i am driving, it stops, but ti is only for like 1-2 seconds. and same, no HD activity...
i make sure everything is off in the back ground as well....

Is there a IRQ conflict? Sometimes when you do to many things at one time the computer will just lock up. I have found that network cards, sound cards and video cards shareing the same IRQ will cause lockups. Your video card should always be on its own IRQ
OP
Thanks for all the tips you gave, i tried all of them and the IRQ sharing gave o lot of performence incresing. But ive installed a temperatur monitor software and found out that every time i used hardware accelerated graphics the cpu temperature rised above the limits. My motherboard doesn't seem to deliver the proper voltage to the cpu when iam running AGP 4X. I tried 2X and the temperature was normal =(
I have to by a new board.
Thanks for the help and iam sorry for the bad english =)

I run nothing else, had the 30.82's? or 30.30's in no go
Also, the sound card is built in on my vaio, and i disabled the NIC card, no use for it
technology can realy stink sometimes.
iwill have to keep an eye on my cpu temperature. i would think a p4 1.8 could handle gta 3 @ 1600 x 1200 res, or even 1280 x 1024 with 32bit textures
