MSI.

if u find any useful info pls let us (who have crash problems of course) know eh.....actually its kinda weird that freezes only occurred when playing mp, no matter low, medium or high setting.
but when playing sp, although on ultra, the play went smoothly (low fps by the way..haha)

i really think it has sumthing to do with my intrnet connection....hmmm

Previously i have same problem juz like urs... but mine is GTX 460 SE which newly bought... i done underclock n almost everything...
Last step update mother bios... still same. Lastly found out tat da sound which intergrated wit motherboard, as u update BIOS it doesnt update the sound driver. U need to find sound driver itself n update it... This solve my issue...

oh i c....yeah i read your post earlier about updating sound driver...i went to sound driver at control panel, and then click update driver. however it showed that i have the latest driver, although i never update sound driver before.

btw, ive still not tried to update bios yet. do u think it can solve my problem by updating it?

my integrated sound driver is realtek high definition sound driver (bla3). what's yours?
is there any way to manually update sound driver? can u give me links where to download it?

u need to go google ur motherboard driver website... from there, u can choose under utilities where sound driver can be downloaded...

my sound card is realtek which integrated with asus mb.
but i get the realtek driver from realtek website, not ASUS.
i think this should be the way getting the latest driver, rite?

u can try... if cant.. try at Asus website...
mine oso realtek.. but i download sound driver frm motherboard website..

btw, wats ur latest version of sound driver after u update? check2 pls

after install new sound driver frm motherboard website itself... from realtek become HD VDECK

hmm...my default sound driver is microsoft, then update driver using realtek 2.66. but still no changes at all. but somehow last night i manage to play around 1 1/2 hr without crashing (i'm sleepy so i logged out be4 any crashes) but today it returns as be4. 15-20 minutes, freezes. omg so frustrated!!

and again i feel it has something to do with my intrnet connection...

2.D/load msi burner to downclock 900mhz to 800mhz.

any of you have artifacts problem at Operation Firestorm map? I encountered it today, but not sure whether game, hardware or driver problem..

i havent played yet. actually i wanted to get 6950.. but my budget went down

i would recommend you to get 6950. its abit more expensive though depending on the brand

okeh...as a refreshment, i have done gazillion bazillion steps to overcome bf3 crashes/freezes, with no success.

spec:
qx9650 3.0ghz
mobo - asus p5g41-mx l (cheap)
ram - 8gb team elite 1333mhz
gfx - msi gtx560 ti
psu - huntkey 650w 80% eff.
win7 64-bit
gfx driver - nvidia 285.79 (current, already tried .38 n .62)


what i've done so far;

1. update nvidia driver frm 285.38 --> 285.62 ---> 285.79 - fail
2. update soundcard driver - fail
3. underclock my gtx560 ti from 880 --> 820, 800 -- fail
4. delete the 'tm' in registry and game folder - fail
5. using msi afterburner set the fan speed 100% - fail
6. set the video setting from high (default) --> medium --> low - fail
7. disable antivirus - fail
8. sleep n dream about the awesomeness of kharg island map and immediately wake up and play mp -- fail

its always the same thing for me, play around 5 - 15 minutes and my pc freezes with looping sound --> press reset. (cannot alt-ctrl-del)

anything else for suggestion? or any opinion of what might be wrong
