happens while playing BFBC2

brand new build

Me too. I have Gskill memory too (F3-10666CL8D-4GBXM) which I think is the culprit.

Could be the rams. could also be the video card. dos it happen when your not playing the game.

I just built a new system, I moved all hardware FWD from old PC, only the Processor, Mobo, and Memory are new.

At this point I really don’t think is memory related, I have swapped out each stick, and BS errors happen with either stick by their selves, or together. So far my “first” BS error always happens about 20 – 40 minutes into BF: BC2. I checked my CPU (35’C – 95’F), and GPU (69’C – 156’F)after playing BC2 after about 15 minutes and before any crashes. Usually when crashes happened after extended game play, it points to an over-heat factor, where hardware becomes unstable, but my temps are normal, so I’m kind of baffled. I have tried three different drivers, two of which ran fine in my old PC, but usually if you have video driver issues, you get a crash soon after the game launches, not 20 – 40 minutes later. It doesn’t load your system near as much, but I played BF2 for about 90 minutes with zero Blue Screens, it’s the only other game I have installed. I have MoH, which in MP uses the Frostbite engine, but have not tried it yet (not installed). I have run several HD movies with no BS errors. I ran 3DMark 11 set to extreme for an hour with no BS’s, and I let Prime 95 run for about 3 hours with no errors.
While in BC2, I get a real quick artifact effect in my graphics, then an instant BS error. I instantly reboot, and after the 1st BS error my next BS will come after only 5 – 10 minutes in BC2. Once again this acts more like something is overheating, my case has a very clean install, just the GFX card installed on the mobo, all other PCI slots are open, two 120mm intake fans, 140mm blow hole, 120mm side-panel for extra GFX card cooling, 120mm exhaust, and my CPU is liquid cooled with twin radiators mounted externally. I have run the system with BIOS default settings, and memory timings changed to G.Skills settings (8-8-8-24). By default the BIOS wants to run memory timings of 9-9-9-25, set to either setting, I get BS’s in BC2. I have powered down both of my external storage drives before attempting to play, still to remove all possible hardware out of equation.

Built on 5-25-11, and I’ve never had any BS errors while on my desktop, so far only in Bad Company 2

Problem solved, thank goodness!

And thanks for someone posting that Riva Tuner and Gigabyte's Easy Tuner 6 cause problems with BC2. Thanks to the person that linked to the post.

I uninstalled ET6, and played smooth as silk for 2 hours with zero errors.

You could try bumping the memory voltage up a little and see what happens. Didn't look up what spec is so if 1.50v try bumping it up to 1.55v or so and see. I've had to do this with Gskill before to get stability.

Edit: Guess you posted while I was reading your thread
