lordbane Posted September 6, 2005 Posted September 6, 2005 This seems to be a major issue with the X2 processor: http://forums.amd.com/index.php?showtopic=53288 I'm beginning to doubt the wisdom of buying it now. I had no idea that it had issues like this before I shelled out $425 CDN for it. :mad: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
billy1ear Posted September 6, 2005 Posted September 6, 2005 Don,t know what game you are playing but I copied this from the bf2 forum maybe the last part will work on your app. For those with AMD X2 dual core processors, after trying everything else(voip, punkbuster, micboost, etc), try this. Open Task Manager, Start BF2, Alt+Tab back to Task Manager, right-click BF2.exe, select Set Affinity, Unselect CPU1, Click OK, go back to game and play. Worked for me, let us know if this works for you. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ROcHE Posted September 6, 2005 Posted September 6, 2005 I can't beleive some of you came up with the power supply thing again. This is a known issue with some games and the X2. I do agree a better PSU would be great but this has nothing to do with this particular problem. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
b-w-d.net Posted September 7, 2005 Posted September 7, 2005 I can't beleive some of you came up with the power supply thing again. This is a known issue with some games and the X2. I know exactly what you mean. Noone gave the writer of the A-list the authority to dictate that any other hardware will not meet the necessary specifications. This PSU issue seems to come up in 100s of threads, most of which, by the looks of it, they arent relevant to. People should encourage diagnosis of a system, not wrecklessly throwing money away for new parts without checking if the old parts are even at fault! I am sick and tired of seeing this from forum users and moderators alike. This is counter-productive people! Stop cutting corners!

I was just shocked that he's running that psu and said he should replace it, I didn't think it had anything to do with his problem.
