Constant Game crashes

[chrissy]

hey guys,

i really need ur help, the only games i usually play is battlefield bad company 2, cod4 and ca and guess what they all crash constantly its really annoying.
Battlefield bad company 2 crashes like at anytime, COD4 last quiet awhile but still it crashes (both online and single same with battlefield) ca just crashes at anytime too idk whats wrong with it. COD4 wen it crashes it says COD4 has stopped working.... battlefield just freezes at the spot and replays the last few seconds of the sound and i press ctrl alt delete and i press task manager the screen it like wide out and battlefield is gone then wen i close task manager the screen is back to normal.

idk whats wrong my settings for the games arent even to the max still they crash

Processor: Intel core 2 quad CPU Q8400 @ 2.***** 2.13 GHz
RAM: 2.00GB
System type: Windows 7 ultimate 32bit
Graphics card: Geforce 9400gt

please help me my bad company 2 is limited edition if i have to reformat my limited edition is gone!!!!!!!

Pre thanks if u help

Learn more about PCs and you will never have these problems..

All your hardware is fine so make sure all your drivers are up to date, mainly video and audio..

Actually a 9400GT is getting a bit old and may struggle with some new games..

Use CCleaner for general PC cleaning and maintenance www.filehippo.com

to be honest changing graphics card, reformatting and buying a new computer is really my last choice and would u recommend any graphic cards?

hi Chrissy just update your direct x and your video card drivers! and you should be fine!

Depends how much you want to spend man, I just got a 275GTX and I absolutely love it, otherwise something like a 9800GT is fine.. Don't waste money on a new PC, your hardware is still fine, maybe buy a new vid card in the future and some more RAM, just learn to update and tune your PC..

Sounds like you need a new graphics card + some RAM

i have 2 2gb of ram but my uncle said dont bother putting it in wont make a difference (only vista can see 4gb ram, xp and win7 only see like 3gb)

hi Chrissy just update your direct x and your video card drivers! and you should be fine!

DirectX 11 comes with Windows7 so no need to update that, but updating video drivers is extremely important, Nvidia and ATI release new drivers monthly which will solve issues such as game crashes..

I get all my drivers and programs from FileHippo.com - Download Free Software

woah monthly? alright ty ill see with my uncle if i can get geforce 9800gt

You need more RAM and better quality the way games are getting these days you need to atleast get the max 3Gigs (That's the max if you're using a 32bit OS) in DDR2 RAM (DDR3 preferred)

Microsoft DirectX

XP 32bit can use 3.3 gb ram
64bit systems can use up to 128gb, but your motherboard must support it.

I recommend you to buy DDR3 1GB * 3(if your motherboard supports it)

Then buy a new grapiccard, I use Nvidia geforce 9500gt and it runs everygame wonderful.

You can never have enough RAM, I have 4gb of 1200mhz DDR3, Windows7 32 bit uses 3.2gb max..
