CTD during convoy attack - Page 2

Your environment may not apply to this suggestion, but when I had my pc CTDing in the middle of convoy explosions it was mid summer with high inroom temperatures and to top it of bad case ventilation. In short, my graphicscard had hot-flashes when the torpedo struck and particle effects shot up. Reducing particle effects fixed it for me, as well as cleaning out the case and fans and applying a new _thin_ layer of thermal paste.

Just a suggestion.

My laptop got very hot between gaming sessions, so I'm leaning toward fried RAM.

One of my kids thought they could play on dad's laptop without him finding out.

She put it back in the bag, still running.

I could have baked bread in the bag when I opened it.

She's lost a few privileges for a while.

She wouldn't by any chance be responsible for the hacking of the CIA computers now, would she?

That could explain the guys watching the house, and the sniper on the neighbor's roof.

Or, maybe I'm just being paranoid.
