Usually this happens after I get some weird graphical glitches during playing Battlefield 2. Ill try to get some screens next time. What is this error?

Did you update your video drivers? what video card do you have?

Is BF2 patched to the latest version?

[RockNRoll]

Ive got the 77.77 set, was about to try the newest ones. I have a GeForce FX 5900. BF2 is patched to the newest version too. The restarts also sometimes happen not in BF2, so I don't know if it's actually GFX related, but the glitches DID look somewhat like memory artifacting if I remember what that looked like correctly. I cleaned out all the dust in my PC so it shouldn't be heat.

XP or Vista?

Are you overclocking?

[Midknyte]

Must be xp since he's running the 77.77s. Those are pretty old already, so an update might help.

Overclocking would also give you those types of problems, especially if you're only using stock cooling.

I used to have it OCed, but I didn't leave it for more than 10 mins since OCing scares me lol, but after benching it OCed it only reached 65c, so I don't think it was damaged. I installed the 93.71's and it seems ok now. And yeah Im on XP.

I might have made a boo-boo with driver cleaner 3. I had those 93's on before, and for a reason that now escapes me, I cleaned the drivers and put the 77.77s on. Might have done something wrong there. If it happens again I'll get a screeny of the glitches if I can, since usually when these errors happen, the next action I try to take reboots my PC.

Thanks, I forgot I was on old drivers lol... I'll keep you posted.
