I play WoW and Team Fortress 2 and shortly after entering either game the program will crash. It seems to be more likely to occur in busy environments i.e. a populated area and I am in dire need for a pro troubleshooter to help me. Ive been in contact with Blizzard support and the latest from them is the Voltage of the RAM is different than what the BIOS says: From GPU-Z Report: Voltage 1 1.18 Volts [0x4A] (VIN1) DIMM # 1 SMBus address 0x50 Memory type DDR2 Module format Regular UDIMM Manufacturer (ID) PNY Electronics (7FBA000000000000) Size 2048 MBytes Max bandwidth PC2-6400 (400 MHz) Part number Number of banks 2 Data width 64 bits Correction None Nominal Voltage 1.80 Volts >>> "Based on the text file you sent me (see above), your RAM is showing that it's >>> operating at 1.18 Volts, which is *significantly* lower than its required >>> nominal voltage. This means the memory voltage needs to be adjusted within >>> the system BIOS to 1.8 Volts." so i have looked in the bios the overvoltage is set to 1.95v under RAM. Also I have increased that number to 2.35 and several intervals in between yet the same crash occurs. here is a picture of the error in wow: http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/863/wowthing.jpg/ If you could help me fix this problem I would be really, really happy.
