9800 pro 128mb

[Craigleberry]

Crashes when trying to play higher quality games.(system restarts). Can play Transformers, The Simpsons Hit and Run, Bee Movie Game but as soon as I try to load up TMNT or run the battle Proxycon test on 3dmark 03 it restarts. wtf. I am running the 8.3 drivers maybee they are too much for the 9800 pro ?

[FreedomEclipse]

whats the spec of the machine your running the 9800pro in???

is the game updated to the latest patch? try play around with some of the settings in the graphics there might be a problem in there thats causing the crash if not. then id say it sounds like the PSU aint got enough just to power your rig but then again you can play other games fine.

maybe its down to an unstable cpu/graphics overclock. cuz when i overclock 3d05 starts having problems completing its benches

I think that 8.3 is too much for AGP Bus. I remember having trouble with my old X1950 AGP with drivers.
Here is a part of the error I get

do you have the updates installed. they came out with a new not long ago, i think it was for 3dmark06, 05 and 03.


did you test it with the computer of these specs:
MOTHERBOARD- DFI LANPARTY NFII ULTRA B - Skt A
RAM- CORSAIR 512MB Memory PC3200 DDR RAM (VS512MB400) DDR400 x2
GPU- ATI 9800 PRO 128mb

TV TUNER- LEADTEK TV20000 BT878
PSU- Usicase 450W
CASE- Usicase
DVD- ROM
HDD- 2 x 20GB HDD IDE

I don't see how, 1 memory, it takes atleast 2gb. 2. Cpu it takes 3.0ghz. and 3 Video Card it show atleast x800.

I ran this games and all the other games and 3dmark.

With theses specs

You are right man... This is just my sons pc that I put together for him to play his games.
I just ran Aquamark3 and scored 38377 . I will have to aquire a X1950 or a X800 me thinks. Transformers runs fine though. My Pc runs them all no worries but I built this one so the kids would stay off mine. lol
