Project Reality Forums

I didnt know where to put this so I decided this is where it fits best. How can I stop GPU overload? I cant play realitymod due to it and I want to atleast play BF heroes. I can already play vBF2.

AH GPU over load, well i managed to physicly melt mine today due to over loading it, the only way to stop it is to buy a better one, sorry if this takes a chunk out of your wallet

Aww damnit, I'm on a temporary laptop so I cannot waste money on it. Damn.

Well, what settings are you runing it on, if your already on all low then you really have little chance of runing it properly, i used all medium and low textures and it looked horrible, thankfully im allowed to get one that will let it run all high YEY!

hope you find a solution

all low, no chance. >:[ But what I dont get is that why I can run vBF2 and not BF Heros

BF heros doesnt support older Laptop Graphics cards, just like Vbf2 didnt when it was released

sorry to break the bad news again

can't be lucky all the time...
BF 2 does not support mobile graphics, like the others have mentioned.

I did have a laptop that played PR with mobile graphics that i bought off HP for £500 i think- so not a wallet breaker. However it also had the same problem as you. However i do have a solution- it worked for me anyway. If you do have a HP laptop or a couple of other brands they are notorious for allowing dust to settle in them and clog up the fan and not allow air to get into the laptop resulting in the GPU melting. What i did was take it to a specialist shop and they opened up the laptop and they blew all of the dust out of it. As a result it runs much better now and it only cost £40 to do. Not sure if you have the same problems. Now i can play PR on it without it getting to hot. A good way to check temperatures is to use speedfan and it will measure how hot ur system gets.
