Hi guys,
I'm having a weird problem with my PC. Normally, my pc functions properly. But when I play games I face a weird kind of lag. This is not the normal lag that people face when their machines are not capable to play the latest graphic-intensive games. This is a lag that surfaces even when I play old games, games such as even Diablo 2!!!.
I have a fairly good rig, almost 2 years old. Its config is something like AMD 6000+ x2 (dual core), 1 GB ddr2 ram, Asus mother board (I don't know which, but I can get the model no. if it's important). On board graphics card. (I share 256 mb for graphics)
So, this is what actually happens. When I load up a game, it plays well for about a minute, then suddenly out of nowhere, it lags for 3-4 seconds, plays again well for 30 seconds, then again lags for 3-4 seconds and so on.
This happens with all 3d games both new and old, game such as Half life 2 ep1, Left 4 dead, Diablo 2, etc. etc. I've tried a few things to remedy this like playing the games on the lowest setting possible, formatting and installing XP, checking the hard disk cable connections. I've also removed the ram, rubbed it with a rubber, and put it in another slot. But that too hasn't solved the problem.
Sorry, if the post became too long. I wanted to make sure I covered all the points before I posted my question. I hope you guys could help me as you've done in the past. I would be really grateful. It has become really frustrating, lolz
