Strange Problem Please Help

[MagnumJoe]

Got a problem,when playing (Quake2 & HalfLife)when using s = forward x = backward and so forth after 10 mins into the game my computer (333 @ 416) seems to slow down, seems like really slow frame rate. Stop and hangs, "in the same game" if I use the arrow up, down, left, and right keys it works fine, doesn't slow down. I changed jumpers back to 333-66mhz(not overclocking) same problem any ideas what the problem can be, and I also swapped keyboards. still same problem.

I have:

64megs of PC 100 ram
Voodoo 1 Monster Card
Stealth 2000 video card
8.4 gig hd

It ran fine on my 200mmx with the same graphic cards and with 32megs of memory.

Thanks, guys I've tried both of your suggestions, still no improvement. Any other ideas welcome.

you've got my "strange problem of the year" nomination. can't even guess why one keyboard click would be different from any other, hardwarewise. if anything, it sounds like a software prob. then again, same prob with two different games, so... i don't know.

sorry couldn't help you.

also try to move the memory to different slots and the video card as well....
and have you tried upping the core voltage or bak it down to reccomended settings??...also try memeory settings out in the bios to see if it helps...
