I have problem with this game where I got crashes and freezes in some areas when playing GW. These areas are mainly the snowy areas like Beacon Perch, Ironmines, Thunderhead Keep etc. As far as I can remember I never had any crashes or freezes in areas around Ascalon, Kryta, Maguuma Jungle and Crystal Desert.
My Specs:
AMD Opteron 146
DFI nF4 Ultra-D
ATI Radeon X800
4x512MB OCZ DDR 400 Value VX
Enermax 535W
I believe this is decent specs to play GW and I have been trying different ATI drivers, old and new ones. So far I couldnt figure it out and it pisses me off because I couldnt go further from Thunderhead Keep mission Any expert please help me ....
Btw I copy this error message when I got the crash, maybe that helps:
AMD Opteron 146
DFI nF4 Ultra-D
ATI Radeon X800
4x512MB OCZ DDR 400 Value VX
Enermax 535W
Why do you have a x800 on an opteron...?
You are better off with a Athlon 64 and a x600, because the bus speeds on the card are probably better than that of the processor >_>
Opterons are designed for servers...not gaming :/
Anyway, try updating drivers...make sure your ram is okay too. Crashes might happen if your Video card and/or ram overheat.
Based on my knowledge opteron is basically AMD Athlon 64 with 1M L2 cache (instead of 512K L2 cache) it was cheaper too. So opteron 146 is better than Athlon 64 3200+. As I stated before I tried different driver versions and currently using the latest one, doesnt help .
The question is why it only crashes/ freezes in specific areas tho. And I play other games like HL2 and CSS, it plays flawlessly.
