Gunter Severloh 2546 Posted September 26, 2011 Check the temperatures of your CPU, and graphics card, sounds like CPU overheating. what is your target line for when you launch the game? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
don1121 10 Posted September 27, 2011 (edited) "C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\arma 2\arma2.exe" I think thats the one your asking for, i dont usually have any problems with games Both cores are staying around 44C and both graphic cards are around 65C except one card had a spike up to 78C the other stayed around 65C Edited September 27, 2011 by don1121 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Gunter Severloh 2546 Posted September 27, 2011 Ok, after the exe in your target line what do you have? any mods you are running, or you just playing the vanilla game and this is happening? you check for virus, spyware, defrag, registry errors, file alignment, system clutter, ect,. weird freezes can be many things if the temps are good.
