PC freezes totally after some time/Fixed

Post by Mingan »

PR is really awesome mod but what is not so awesome is that I can't play it. Every time I play multiplayer my PC totally freezes (sound goes crazy and I need to restart it from reset button) after about 20 minutes. My computer is totally stable even with huge overclocks when playing other games (like ARMA2), but this doesn't work even with default clocks. I think it worked longer when I set texture quality to medium but even then it freezed after about an hour. I've got no clue how to fix this anymore...

Some specs:
Intel E5200
GTX460
4GB DDR2
Realtek integrated sound
Windows 7 x64

Check temps inside case and/or bump your page file to 1.5 time real ram to see if it helps.
1 gig = 1024. 4 gig = 4096. 4096 x 1.5 = 6144.
Install extra fans if needed.

Thank you, that was the solution! It seems BF2 game engine loads lots of stuff to pagefile even if there is plenty of RAM free. It's weird but at least it's case closed.
