My computer acts sluggish most of the time, but remains stable until I try to play any format of movie file. 90% of the time or so my computer will then lockup after opening any movie file. It does the same thing overclocked or stock.
Specs:
evga 680i A1 motherboard
4-4-4-12 Crucial 2GB ram (ballistix)
e6600
evga 8800gts superclock Videocard
OCZ 700w gamexstream PSU
It doesn't seem to be dependent on the temperature, sometimes it will come out of a lockup when I control-alt-delete, but the system will run sluggish after this point. I've tried every codec you could think of, switched to vista (got driver stopped responding errors), switched back to xp, use all sorts of media players, reset the cmos, changed settings, etc, etc... I have no idea what the issue could be, but I'm thinking ram or video card. What do you suggest I do? Thank you!
