| 466870 | 2006-06-29 04:20:00 | Does this happen on only the one game or more than one? | zqwerty (97) | ||
| 466871 | 2006-06-29 05:25:00 | Thanks for your input, but let me clarify, I have only a dialup conection on my office os & that is fully protected. So it is impossible to be on line when I am on the gamer. I doubt if this problem is intenet related. Re memory, as Graham says "a suspect" & I will check is out. |

| 466872 | 2006-06-29 05:43:00 | The first time is was in V8 Supercars3 & the second in V8 Supercars2 I must add that have been just about right through GT Legends running at max settings without a problem & this is the hungryest game I have. Some other system specs that may help: HD Barracuda 7200.9 SATA NCQ 3GB/s RAM A-Data Dual Channel 2x512MB DDR-SDRAM DIM DDR400 CPU AMD K8 Athlon64 3511+Socket 939 Venice Core MB Foxcon NF4K8AC-8EKRS |

| 466873 | 2006-06-29 06:17:00 | Next time just delete the bad software file and replace with the origional from the windows disc. Suspect hardware fault, trial and error. |

| 466874 | 2006-06-29 09:36:00 | Ran Memtest86+ & got zero errors. | rocky138 (10636) | ||
| 466875 | 2006-06-30 00:58:00 | Your problem is an intermittent one. Try the memory tester next time it happens. ;) Memory problems often occur at higher temperatures. The middle of winter is probably not the best time to find them. ;) |

| 466876 | 2006-06-30 01:54:00 | Thank you Graham, I will try that if/when it happens again. What did you think of Rob99' solution? |

| 466877 | 2006-06-30 02:05:00 | I'm not sure about that. That file looks to be the sort of thing which is generated during a system installation. The default one on the CD might be OK to do an installation, but might not be what's needed for full use of your hardware. Executable files, and DLLs, yes. But configuration files are usually very installation-specific. | Graham L (2) | ||
| 466878 | 2006-06-30 02:16:00 | Thats what I thought. I have made a copy of the installed file as it is now & saved it for future reference. |

| 466879 | 2006-06-30 03:29:00 | Graham, for the record, if a box has a DHCP address to a router, NO o/s config is require by user, for the o/s to use that internet connection, hence my question. | SolMiester (139) | ||
