That's right, guys. My F1C is once again freezing randomly. And this time, I'm sure I have no idea why. I rolled back to NVidia 45.23 drivers, I have 23% free space on my hard drive (80Gig HDD) and I have defragged it. I installed my soudn card and motherboard drivers again, and I am totally stumped: - P4 2.53GHz - 1024MB DDR-RAM - Sound Blaster Audigy 2 - G4 Ti4600 - ASUS P4PE motherboard (845PE Chipset) Regards, J.R.

Hows the video card temp? I had a fan fail and that created lock-ups. Dust build up might cause the same thing.

(I can't remember if it was sound or video) run dxdiag.exe and move the slider down for each and see if that helps. dave henrie
