Hey guys, I have been having some problems with my computer but have never seen this kind of problem before so if you would not mind taking a bit of time to read what i have to say and respond with any input you can, that would be great.
Ok....so these are my thoughts. When i built my computer i didnt have a screw to keep my Videa card sturdy againsed the case but it was still working. Soon after i relized that when i open my computer and move the vidio card it moves rather easily in the motherboard slot.
This is where the problem comes in. I have recently been having ootles of trouble playing WoW. Every time i log on it will freeze my computer and i will have to manually reboot it. I am thinking this may have to do with either my motherboard or video card. I did, however, get some input that it might be the game or hard drive...but that was not the case because i uninstalled, reinstalled, then reformated my hard drive and started from the beginning with absolutly nothing on my computer. Sure enough the game still doesnt work!
The oddest this is that I am still able to play CS:S , COD and Farcry which all have decent graphics. So i am now asking every one of you whether you think there is something currupt in my hard drive, video card or motherboard? I am willing to buy some new parts but i dont have the money to buy them all so i am trying to get this sorted out.
WoW is my main game and the only one that i cant seem to play so the REAL question is WTF is up with my comp?????
