OH,like that.Do you feel your CPU suddenly slow down during gaming?MAybe earlier time the game is smooth,but until certain time then become lag?Or yours is feeling lag in the beginning of the game?

not really restart la... it depend.... nvidia card overheat then it will automatic downclock ur clock speed.... and intel processor can too.. but i duno bout sempron since old AMD processor have major issue on heat and heat control......

I think there is something to relate with your CPU as your display card and RAM is preety enough and good for your system.What vincent said are correct,they are the natural behaviour of the products.

To aero99..

1. make sure ur whole system tempreture is cool enuf.... proc below 65-70'C, GC below 70'C, mobo(northbridge) below 50'c, HDD below 45'c..... that is all the max temperature that u shudnt exceed........clear off dust from ur casing.... its good to do it once in a month or 2

2. uninstall old driver(GC) properly... use some driver cleaner... i use detonator RIP... and install latest driver, either from nvidia or ur gc manufacture website.

3. make sure ur computer is free from virus... they are worst enemy of computer.do full scanning. if u dont have antivirus, u can go trendmicro website and use "housecall"... free scanning antivirus on web(using java or flash).

4. make sure ur computer background is not loaded with plenty unused program...such as stupid autoupdate for realplayer, apple and etc. They might take unnecessary memory out of ur com. disable from each software

5. make sure each of ur drive for HDD have quite some unused space, 15-20% empty space is preferred.

haha thats all i can think of.... hope it might help u..

aero99, AFAIK there is no difference in requirement Fear XP and Fear.

I suspect overheat (most probably since u say it become slower and slower) OR some background program especially antivirus autoupdate.

well, the F.E.A.R : Extraction Point's is better than F.E.A.R, that's why the gameplay also being affected, last time i used to play with 7300GT smoothly, but when installed the Extraction Point, tried on same card, same settings... the gameplay sucks

yeah, last time i play FEAR using 6600gt agp also got nice graphic, but when trying XP with my 7300gt really suck~!!

oh izzit?? FEARXP requirement is higher than FEAR ah??/ then the new FEAR PERSUES MANDATE is going to be higher lor..... >_<"

hi everyone...
hohohoho....tried lower some eye candy in the grahic setting n minimum all watsoever setting...

finally..its abit smooth...and...SHIT~!! the game farking fear my out!! no guts to play lehhh!!! i oso duno how i able to finish fear in the 1st place....

btw...thax everyone who help me out there to sovle this.... i guess shld be time for me to do a next upgrade in the near future lahh...well..if i had my yr end bonus ...lahhhh~~

Can 7series RUN windows vista?

can kua... all can run.. just that have to see smooth anot only... vista now stil not mature enuf as if deproving performance nearly for everythg.... Zzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

no, it can't run Vista, but it'll running fine on Vista

fuiyoh..... frighten me when i read "NO" .. then when i continue reading only know u .... Zzzzzzz... but 7300gs also will run smooth??

haha...bro sniper is always like that anyway i think the 73GS will run smooth on vista if u juz use it for surfin web n doing office application.

read the keyword "on" , , anyway... IMO 7300GS can run smoothly on Vista, but do keep in mind, (IIANM la), when running on Vista, the card will continuous running on 3D clock instead of 2D clock on desktop and 3D clock on gaming or any 3D application

Yea, so the heat of the card is an issue.

yes.. precisely

uhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh.......off all vista features and graphic..... so will look like windows 98 back i think.. .haha

continue the 7 series here
