Well, found out what was causing my system to lock up. While peaking around for anything obvious like loose ram I happen to see something strange out of the corner of my eye; a dangling fan hanging off of my video card. Seems that the card (6600gt)only gets hot after a few minutes of game play. So, since I did not have a replacement fan handy I ran out to Best Buy and bought a slot cooler. At first it seemed to cool it, but after about 10 minnutes I was locked up again. Oh well, I'm off to Microcenter for a replacement vid card tomorrow. Sounds like a good time for a small upgrade. In any event I still have a useful 6600gt that I should experiment with watercooling. Anyone tried this befire?
