A question for everyone

[TAMUmerrick]

I am trying to figure out what is causing my games to crash. See topics below.

I think I am getting close to a solution.

My question for everyone is:

Does anyone know of a program that would monitor another program (in this case a game) and see if it finds anything unusual when the game crashes? Freeware or otherwise. The problem is I just cant get any messages that tell me why the games are crashing and I wnat to know if there is a program that can help with such things.

Not really. You should check the Windows event log for error messages that might give you a clue.

You should also keep your posts in one thread. I'd be happy to help you with your problem but I haven't got the time to go hunt down your other thread.

Suffice to say that if the system is stable on the desktop but crashes in games likely culprits are: video or audio driver (install the latest), DO NOT overclock, PSU may not have enough power for your vid card, overheating (try running the system with the cover off the case and see if it helps).

Might want to Alt-Tab out of your game periodically, and monitor your CPU temperature for changes (specifically, heat spikes).
