Rangr_boba Posted April 12, 2002 Share Posted April 12, 2002 Not really sure if it is my comp or JK2, but the behavior that it is exhibiting only occurs in JK2. Seems that the system is randomly shutting down while playing the MP version. And when I try to turn the system back on, it won't turn back on unless I leave it off for a few seconds. It seems like a heat issue or something, but why would only JK2 cause this? I have several programs that push my Geforce 4 as hard as it would seem that JK2 does. Anyone else suffering similarly? Thanks in advance... system specs: AMD Athlon XP 1700+ Asus A7N266 w/ 512 DDR RAM Creative SB Live Value with latest drivers Visiontek Geforce 4 Ti 4600 w/ nvidia reference driver 28.32 60 Gig Diamondmax HD 30X CD Rom Win2000 with all updates installed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rangr_boba Posted April 13, 2002 Author Share Posted April 13, 2002 well it seems that I answered my own question. I went out and bought an exhaust fan and a nice 6" sized fan to dissipate heat inside my case. After installing them I ran JK2 for a bit, then rebooted and hopped into my BIOS to check the temperatures of the MB and CPU. They were both @40 degrees C. I seem to recall them reading in the mid 60s after rebooting my system after my initial problems so it would seem that the 2 extra fans have alleviated the problem.

ineluki Posted April 13, 2002 Share Posted April 13, 2002 You could also try turning off "reboot when unstable" in the control panel somewhere. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
