Hi, i have this really wacked up problem.. my computer likes to randomly freeze sometimes.... i'll be playing WoW and the screen freezes then blacks out then when it comes back its all distorted... and i get the bad sound through my speakers.. cycling my computer solves the problem.. but yea it gets kinda annoying... i can play day of defeat (HL1) fine... but its only wow.... computer specs are as follows....
socket 478 P4 3.0ghz E (prescott) @ 3.3ghz
asus p4c800E-deluxe (bios 1019)
Corsair ddr400 512 mb
Munshikin ddr433 512 mb (currently running ddr400)
ATi X850PRO 256mb (pipeline flashed)

audigy 2 ZS
windows xp pro sp2
maxtor 200 gb hd
seagate barracuda 200gb
liteon dvd/cdrw
temps on the cpu are fine i think.. mbm5 says that the temps are 42 idle 47 load i've even installed a pci exhaust thinking the video temps were to high but that didnt work...
might be good to say that i use a dual-screen setup. if anyone can figure out why or how.. much would be abliged.. i've tried to reformat with a clean install of windows XP pro sp2.. and XP pro sp1~manual sp2 update and both still messed up... i've tried many different drivers for the video.. i've tried catayst 4.9s and the 5.7s and the 5.8s... i've even tried the omega 5.7s and 5.8s with no luck... i'm like pinned to a wall here... help please...
i've even heard a rumor going around saying the asus sata cables are bad and replaced those.. no luck..... /cry... thanks and /bow help!
