 |  Vista, Lost Planet, and 8800GTS issue. So, I took the DX10 leap awhile ago. Mainly because I upgrade every 1.5 to 2 years. And it's that time. Right now I'm running- ASUS A8N SLI-Premium AMD X2 3800+ @ 2.5GHZ OCZ Platinum 1.5gigs. Enermaz Libtery 550W Mod. 8800GTS 320MB 74gig raptor, 160gig, 320 gig I'm in the process of getting a Q6600 quad, 4gigs of G skill(im ordering them tonight!), and a Gigabyte P35 mobo I found. Anyway, that's besides the point. I updated the 8800GTS with the latest drivers. I can start up Lost Planet, run it at 1280x720, most settings on high, some on medium, with AA and AF on, i think 4xAA and 8xAF or something. Anyway, I can play for a few, then out of no where, the game will crash without warning. The screen goes black and theirs still sound. I havent played any other game with it yet, and I haven't had any other issues with my computer what so ever after going to Vista. In fact I found my computer just as fast and more stable then with XP haha. I'm guessing this is just another dirver issue with Vista. Oh and I'm running 32-bit, not 64-bit (ill go 64-bit in awhile). Anyone else experience this issue or one smiliar?

| Re: Vista, Lost Planet, and 8800GTS issue. Dude, my temps are just fine. That's not a problem at all. I've been running that OC for months and months now. my temps are just dandy. Last time I checked I was running 32 C idle and lower 40's under load. And my vid card temps are just fine, as is my system temp. It's not temp related, I'm starting to think it's a driver issue.
