dethfield Posted November 25, 2010 Share Posted November 25, 2010 So ive been playing oblivion again for the past week without any problems at all. Then i wake up this morning to play, and the game keeps crashing after about a minute or so of play. Its a strange crashing too. It will crash the whole computer after showing a strange screen of wierd pixilated colours. Ive already tried re-installing the game, but it keep happening. I have no mods running either, just the official DLCs. Computer specs: Intel Quad CoreGeforce GTX2808gb DDR2 RAMWindows 7 Please.. anyone have an idea what to do?

LFact Posted November 25, 2010 Share Posted November 25, 2010 What about other games? Do they also crash with 'strange screen'? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dethfield Posted November 26, 2010 Author Share Posted November 26, 2010 I just tried running fallout new vegas, and i crashed the same way even quicker. Could this mean my video card has gone bust? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Qwaxalot Posted November 26, 2010 Share Posted November 26, 2010 Your Video card is likely failing. Try opening the case and cleaning out all the dust bunnies. Make sure all he fans are spinning. Download and run a program like CPU-Z or PC-wizard and check CPU and GPU temps, as well as power supply voltages. Most Video card failures are caused by overheating or a weak Power supply. Good luck Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
