I recently bought a new graphics card, as well as any I installed a few games to see how it works. However, when i start the "RAGE", "Skyrim", "Assassins creed 2". Game starts and then everything freezes. Graphics is a gtx 460 with the latest drivers.
Other components:
AMD Athlon 64 x2 Dual Core Processor 4000+ 2.10GHZ
2.00 GB
Interesting is that the Rage works some thime than freeze,skyrim won't eaven start and AS2 work about 10min.
I installed all drivers for sound card,lan card...

Can you follow my instructions precisely and fill up your system specs completely (including your PSU and it's wattage) using the tutorial i linked to above?

It's important so that we can find out precisely which component is at fault.

Can someone explain to me what should be a condition of conflicts/sharing. In order to know which drivers to install or change. In upper post i posted picture of my current condition of conflict/sharing.
As for Tips on Troubleshooting Game Isueš, I checked more than one item, DirectX has been updated to 11, have special drivers for LAN, video card and sound card. I have a problem with the graphics card because the computer freezes after a major use of it. Can anyone tell me remanded stable drivers for gtx 460?

From looking at your system specs, i can see that you have a very underpowered 300 W PSU.

300 W is not enough to drive a NVIDIA GTX 460 card, It's no wonder your system freezes everytime you try run any games.

I recommend that you replace your PSU with another one that can provide your system with a minimum wattage of 550 - 600 W.

Something like these power supplies perhaps.

Thanks for the feedback.

Have you tried monitoring your GPU and CPU temperatures before starting the games?

Try using these programs to do so and report back.

Is this a desktop or laptop? if the first, change your power settings to "High Performance", maybe this causes your freezing problems...

See ya!! :D

That could be the case, but it shouldn't freeze, and Windows should warn you instead that you're running low on RAM...

Hmm, you have 2GB of RAM and are running Windows 7 64 bit and trying to run some games on top of it? That is considered dangerously low, consider upgrading to 4 GB.
