Title is pretty much what happens. Usually its 30-45 min in and my computer will blue screen. This is new. Now i have not been playing for about 3 weeks because of SC2 beta. There was a patch during that time that came out for BC2; so it leaves me to wonder. I did also update my Nividia driver, but I have had zero issues in any other games. Thought It may have been an overheating issue but my temps are nothing to worry about. CPU load is about 44C and GPU does not go above 64C. Any ideas? :bang head

I'm assuming you've tried load testing your CPU with Prime?
Memtest?

I mean when I was overclocking my processor I used Prime95 to make sure it is stable. Why would this be the only game to do this...I guess I could try a memory test. Is there some reason why overtime the overclock would become not stable?

Degradation? You'll have to keep upping the voltage every so often to avoid instability.

I haven't ever had any experience but I know that it's something that happens.

I upped the volts and everything seems to be fine. For some reason Core 1 kept failing in Prime.

Like I said, Degradation :P
Having to up the voltage is a clear sign of it.

Interesting. Thanks for the info. Looks like I may have a 1090T sooner than I thought.
