Thread: Finally my Systems are fixed

So for the past few months I have been having issues with both of my gaming systems. First it was only one then the problem moved to the second system. It was so bad that I couldn't and enjoy it.

Code:

My work system:
BioStar A760GM2+ Motherboard 
AMD Phenom(tm) II X4 965 Processor ~800MHz 
Corsair XMS2 DDr2 1066Mhz 4 GB RAM 
500 GB Hitachi SATA HD 
ATI Radeon HD 4600 Series 
LG Flatron E2250V LED 
Thermaltake TR2-600W
Cheap Case, Upgrading soon. it doesn't get good airflow but CPU temps are good.
Windows 7 Ultimate 64-bit (6.1, Build 7600)


Home System:
BioStar T-Series A790GX A3+ ver. 5.1
AMD Phenon II X4 970 3.5Ghz Black Edition
Patriot 4 -4GB DDR3 1333Mhz
500 GB SATA HD
Ati Radeon HD3870 X2 1Gb
LG Flatron E2350V LED 
Cooler Master CM-690 II case (Air Cooled)
Antec TPQ-850 watt PSU
Windows 7 Professional 32bit

I checked all drivers and made sure they were up to date, check all my temps, lowered my video settings but nothing seemed to help.

I was talking to Dex and Manno2 in game one day and Dex told me I need to downgrade my video drivers. Well after downgrading from 11.5 to 11.3 I can finally play without getting a headache or sick to my stomach.


Thanks Dex.

Nice man. Hope to see you in game soon.

Well minor set back. Saturday while at work and messing with my system I found that my PSU fan was not working. This is strange I have never seen a PSU fan not work and the PSU still provide power. I never had any smell either, which again is strange. So I took this time to upgrade my PSU from a 500 to a 600Watt and move everything into a New case that has better cooling.
After looking at the specs of my motherboard it doesn't support the new chip I put in it so I am going to put the old AMD Phenon II x4 655 back in. This will take care of the system lag that I was having. As I was looking at the FSB of 965 it was only going to 800, I noticed this as I was posting this thread and copied my specs from XFire, so this has to be the major issues I was having with the lag.
The spots were fixed with the older video drivers. Which is started happening again on my work box. I think it was the Catalyst Control Center that I installed after everything was working that caused the spots to re-appear.

I do want to upgrade my home Motherboard and then take that board to my work system....Any suggestions I am running the AMD Phenon II X4 3.5Ghz BE.

Kill you soon,
