Wanted to say thanks for all the help! It is amazing there are people out there still like you guys. Just wanted to run something by you... Here are my current temps after playing COD for about an hour...
GPU 1 -80c
GPU 2 -70c
Core 1- 27c
Core 2 - 26c
Core 3 -22c
How do these temps look? I am scared the GPU is a little to high?
Very welcome.
That's fine as long as no crashing. Maybe a little high at 80 but I would not worry about it. If it crashes, then you know you have a problem. Keep the fan(s) running max when playing.
AAggghhh.... EEWWWWWWW.I will attempt to redownload the drivers. I took my computer into best buy earlier today (before I found this page) and they said they updated all drivers and did a clean install. I was so happy to play my cod again! I have been reading for the past 5 hours, and was wondering if this would be a issue with my graphics card being a 9800 gx2? I read something on here about windows 7 not supporting that card be it is a hybrid sli? (Which I dont know what a hybrid SLI is) Thanks for your help, I will attempt to do drivers again. Also not an overhead issue, but im gonna dust again just to make sure :)
Thanks,
Justin

Honestly... They don't know anything.
Ok, so besides doing a clean install (which is easy, and very helpful sometimes), they also updated drivers.... I hope they charged you VERY little for that. (Knowing GS, that cost over $100).
The 9800 gx2 has two GPUs. This just means it is like two video cards in one. And those temps are normal. No worries until it is 95C plus.
Make sure your drivers are up to date from the NVidia site (GeForce 9800 GX2) and everything.
I would also check to make sure it is compatible with W7 and your motherboard.

Just had another crash as soon as I entered that post... Not even gaming atm. No blue screen just a total system freeze.
Lordbob,
Didnt cost me a dime since I work at Best Buy, but I agree, most agents in the GS are just there for a paycheck and dont know to much about indepth problems. How do I find out if my card is even compatible?
You read my mind and I was going to post the EXACT same 2 things but didn't. hahAAggghhh.... EEWWWWWWW.I will attempt to redownload the drivers.

Alright,
Downloaded newest GPU driver, and it said it was already updated. So I made it replace all current files just incase there was a messed up file. I just dusted out my case and cleaned the GPU. I will cont. to post dumps as they happen. Last issue was losing picture but not sound. Then the sound froze and I couldn't do anything. Had to push the power button.The noise it made out of the speakers was a screeching noise, I dont know if that matters or not.
Thanks again!
