Hi Guys

Having a problem which I believe is a problem with my Geforce 6800GT

Getting this error message after my computer is forced to reboot

I exit Splinter Cell Pandora Tomorrow, it comes up like a blue screen of death for like 3 seconds saying at one point of it IRQL_NOT_EQUAL or something like that, then when Windows restarts this error message below comes up.

It seems to only do it on Splinter Cell, tried reinstalling and that doesnt help

Humm, i had that same exact problem with Black Hawk down... I cant remember what i did to fix it, but i know that it gave me the same message your recieving...
You might want to try 3 things
1. download different videocard drivers (i like the 81.89 forceware's)
2. Downclock your OC if you have one...
3. Buy a new computer

2. Uh, OC = overclock in america... so turn that down a little and see what happens...

ahh sry, i was talking more about your CPU... usually that stuff has to do more with corrupt windows files.

it only seems to do it in splinter cell so i kinda figured it wasnt a windows error, none of my parts are OC'ed at the moment

Humm, then i guess what's left is re-installing the game, i mean, it isnt your OCes, your drivers or windows. So yea, see what happens when u re-install. If that doesnt work, well, humm i'm stumped.

i tried reinstalling it, no luck there

also there is a problem with the saves.

Ive got saved games in it and sometimes when i start it up, theres no saved games, so im stumped as well i guess

put it down to simple game cd corruptio i suppose

1. Format HDD
2. Install Win XP with SP2
3. Install drivers, first the drivers for motherboard, then drivers for graphic card, then everything else.

Is it good to use image software IE Norton Ghost, just say Install OS with all Drivers and Service Packs then create an image so this never happens again

hey

i dont know if this will help - but i used to get that playing americas army - the rebooting thing balls up - happened when i hit quit when i was in game or something

the only way i cured to was to change my boot.ini file
(see the bit where is says no execute - well take the no out and change it to execute) something to do with dep function

if you wanna have a read at this , maybe help maybe not.

http://forum.americasarmy.com/viewtopic.php?t=136723

something to do with 64bit amds + nvidia + windows sp2

hoooah
