Hey guys, Here are the specs for my new computer
HP Pavilion Elite m9340f
Intel Core 2 Quad Q6700 / 2.66 GHz
Chipset type -- Intel G33 Express
6 GB RAM
Hard drive 750 GB
OS-- Microsoft Windows Vista , Microsoft Windows Vista Home Premium 64-bit Edition
the past 2 weeks i've been trying to play Counter-strike source on my new computer.. for some reason i can load steam.. and i can also open up counter-strike source but right when i join a game or create a single player game even.. it freezes within 10 seconds.. i can still hear the sound looping but my screen graphics change slightly and then the monitor simply idols (turns black) as if the computer is shut off .. the whole computer freezes and i have to do a hard restart...
Does any1 have any experience with playing CS Source w/ this type of computer??
If anyone has any advice on what i can do to fix this problem i would really appreciate it. THANK YOU
