Modern Warfare 2 - Evasive problem
Okay so I can run modern warfare 2 through steam for hours successfully. Then the very next da (like today) it crashes, not once but every time... like a score in a row thus far.
The problem manifests by locking up the whole computer (as in no ctrl-alt-del, nothing works except power off and on or hard restart). Before it did come with graphical and sound glitches so I swapped out the sound card and I've made sure I've got the latest drivers for both.
Now after that it improved slightly. After uninstalling microsoft security it worked fine... no idea why.
So anyway I was playing yesterday for hours. This morning in response to a friends request I downloaded Spybot Search and Destroy. To check it worked I installed it and let it run. I used the whole immunise function. Then tried to run MW2 after having played Mass Effect for a couple of hours successfully. It crashed and kept crashing since.
I've uninstalled and reinstalled, checked the cache integrity. Tried running it through the single player menu (which has worked in the past). Nothing.
I'm pretty much making good use of the reinforced keyboard on this machine but I'm getting no where fast.
Help?
