Hello guys !

I've got strange problem.There are many threads on the web with
nVidia INFINITE LOOP,but it looks other on my machine...

The problem:

I have very aggressive DDR settings,GeForce Ti overclocked too
- the system is superb stable.
I've been playing games for hours.No lockups at all.

NHL 2002, NBA 2001 Live, NFS4 ,NFS5 ,C&C:Renegade

Yesterday I found out that I am unable to play RTCW & Q3 Arena.
RTCW runs only few minutes and then ALWAYS "nv4disp BSOD" appears.
I thought that it is RTCW related.But it is the same with Q3 Arena.
I tried to run VULPINEGL Mark - it works fine ...

--> I don't think that Q3 engine sucks ?!

So please advice if U can why my system can't run OpenGL games.
I know that I'll have to play with KR7A bios settings and try other Detonators (now I have 23.11)...

But why only RTCW

Thanks a lot for it

My guess is that they're more sensative to that stuff than the other games. Try running Unreal Tournament if you can, or even the demo.

Yes - You are right,it looks like OGL games are much more sensitive that DX ones...

I changed 2TCommand instead of 1TCommand in KR7A Bios.

It seems to help in RTCW

2T timings seem to help a lot with the Samsung DDR modules. They are only CAS 2.5 (not 2), so 2T is recommended. I say this because I have 2x256 Samsung DDR sticks as well...
