hey its me again!

this time with more complex problems...

while i was playing driver parallel lines, at the beginning where you have to speed away.
as soon as i went into the big park space the game froze...

after a few seconds it loaded and continued gameplay.

a few seconds later it froze again, never to load progress again!

here is a snapshot of the hardware usage and temps

here are my specs,

GPU:Nvidia Geforce 8800GTS shader clock 1800mhz mem speed 800mhz core clock 550mhz
RAM:1.7GB 612mhz ram
CPU:AMD athlon X2 +5200 512Kb cache (2.7GHz each core!)
Power: Codegen 550W
Mobo: Gigabyte S-Series GA-M56S-S3 Gaming motherboard/w nvidia Nforce 560

the 8800 needs a 550w+ power supply, with a combined power of ~40a minimum (dual +12v rails is a must!)

what are the specs of your existing power supply

this 8800GTS has a min power usage of 450W and a reccomended 530W.

my PSU has a output of 530W and i know the 8800 is receiving enough power because not too long ago i won a benchmark in sydney showgrounds =-D

and yes it does have 2x12v rails, i also checked the voltages with speedfan and theyre all exactly powered to spec.

also 2 of the fans are ultra big and 2 are extremely small to keep dust out =-)
