| I donīt know whatīs causing it but tRO has made my computer restart two times. Well, almost. I had to restart it the second time because you couldnīt do anything on it.The first time the screen just blacked out and the computer restarted. The second...well, the game froze every 5th second and I couldnīt click on anything else on my computer either. Then the computer started to beep as soon as I pressed a key.
Then the screen looked like a fucked up glitch. The resolution of the screen had changed after that. Even after I had restarted the computer. Wtf is up with this? Edit: SECOND time it restarted by itself. Hereīs the error message. BCCode : 1000008e BCP1 : C0000005 BCP2 : F6D18443 BCP3 : B8AADA94 BCP4 : 00000000 OSVer : 5_1_2600 SP : 2_0 Product : 256_1 Does anyone understand that? (edited by Trapster on 04-24-06 03:22 PM) |

This is the first Windows BSOD that I don't even know how to decipher  |

| Even if it is not the proper, clear error message for damaged memory (IRQ_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL), I recommend checking your RAM with memtest86, I recommend several cycles, like it could be run for some hours over night..
The entire computer can be tested with Prime95, but I have no experience with this. Other factors might be: - Video card - Overheating (even if Ragnarok Online should not use that much system resources) - Driver problems |

Give this a go?  It seems the closest match I could get out of Google.(edited by Tarale on 04-25-06 03:17 AM) |

| The thing is that I donīt recall getting any of those error messages which are listed on the site. Only the data sample.
We overclocked the CPU a while ago but Iīve played many games since then and I didnīt notice this problem until yesterday. I donīt remember if we tried to clock the RAM too. |

| Ah... overclocking... the source of many a weird error....
If you're going to do that kind of thing, I've found it helpful to make sure that every little thing you have is up to date. BIOS, Drivers, Chipset, EVERYTHING.  |

| Uh, we did that before we clocked it. You couldnīt change the numbers in the BIOS if you didnīt update it. The BIOS froze when we tried. My big brother helped me. Heīs worked with computers for over 5 years.
Edit: Btw, AVG didnīt find any virus in the system folder. And I never got any "STOP0x000something" message. It was only that data sample. (edited by Trapster on 04-25-06 10:06 AM) |

Uh.... well, you could have just said, geez 
I've worked in the industry for 10 years, and I've learned never to assume that the "client" has already done something -- and therefore to ask what may be later called "stupid questions"
If you clock things back to their regular settings, does stability return? It could simply be that you cannot overclock your stuff -- or at least cannot clock it so high. Also, in future to stop us from asking redundant questions, it would be great if you provided us with as much information as possible.  For instance, the overclocking was not even mentioned in the first post.(edited by Tarale on 04-25-06 10:08 AM) |

| Well, the system froze when we clocked it too much, so no, we havenīt clocked it too much.
And I didnīt get that problem after I had quit playing tRO. I donīt know how to clock it back as I wasnīt there when my brother fiddled with it. I was eating. |

| It could be possible that what tRO is asking of your system is too much for it in its current overclocked state.
There are tools you can test this with -- artifact testers are one example, but will only pick up videocard related bugs. Remember -- not all systems CAN be effectively overclocked.  You may need to set things back. |

| Yeah, Iīve thought about that. But I donīt know exactly how to change it. I know what the CPU was at. We clocked that from 2.00ghz to 2.20ghz. Shouldnīt be much of a problem if you clock it that little.
Iīll have to ask my brother about the RAM bus speed. Edit: Final Fantasy VII crashed for me yesterday. It didnīt cause the computer to restart, though. I hope that itīs not a problem with Windows.  (edited by Trapster on 04-26-06 03:13 AM) (edited by Trapster on 04-26-06 03:14 AM) |

Originally posted by TrapsterI wouldn't call 200MHz a "little" increase. That's 10% faster than your CPU's rated speed!
Just because the problems are only appearing now doesn't mean they're not overclocking-related. CPUs are given a maximum speed rating for a reason. You might be pushing your CPU too hard, and the extra stress and heat is just now starting to cause some damage. Did you upgrade the heatsink and fan when you started overclocking? Have you ever checked your system's temperature? (My CPU temperature went up nearly 5 degrees when I tweaked a couple of BIOS settings, and they weren't even clock speed-related. I can only imagine what a 10% increase would do!) I would first ask your brother how to drop the speed back to normal, and then see if the problems go away, as Tarale said. |

| The temperature isnīt that high as I have 5 fans in the computer. Two in the computer box, one at the graphics card, one at the CPU and one...well, I donīt remember where the last one is but you get the idea.
I do check the temperatures pretty often. I donīt remember the exact numbers so Iīll have to wait until I get to the dorm to check that. Edit: Okay, it restarted again so I decided to clock it down to normal. That is now done so Iīll just see if it happens again. (edited by Trapster on 04-26-06 02:14 PM) |
