| help :p Today my new cpu arrived from Bicker .. thnx! ( XP1800+ ) I 'pulled out the Duron800 from the Abit KR7A & inserted the XP1800+ boots up, no problem, prime95 no problem, but when I launch a game ( 3DMark/Unreal ), it hangs after 10 sec my n00bish question: does changing the cpu have ANY effect on the GFX? I also have: Geforce 3 Ti500 & Twinmoss PC2100 ( also tried PC 2700 ) I have a feeling something might be wrong with the gfx, it's very hot ...fans still running though any idea's I can try ? |
