My PC was built about 4 years ago, and was actually a gift from my little brother when he moved over seas for work.
i5-2500k @3.3GHz
ASUSTeK Computer INC. P8P67 LE Rev X.0X
AMD Radeon HD 6900 (6950 i think...) 2GB
8g RAM (not sure the maker/speed without going to look)
4 different various drives (250gb ssd, 2tb hdd, 1tb hdd, 500gb hdd)
Things work and run just fine, well until about the last month. I've had some issues trying to open Warcraft. Generally I can launch the game on my main screen and then cursor over to the other screen and do stuff in chrome while it loads up. Well Chrome would start to become unresponsive, and then so would WoW (and never finish loading). At this point I would try and ctrl+alt+delete, but to no avail. The screen would eventually go blank and a window would pop open saying "The logon process was unable to display the security and logon options when ctrl+alt_delete was pressed. If the operating system does not respond, press ESC or restart the computer by using the power switch." I repaired WoW and haven't really noticed the incident again, but I have had the game crash on me at least twice in the last 2 weeks saying it could not reference memory blah blah. I've also received the following BSoD once (last week, before I repaired BF4 and WoW):
I came here first before diving in too much with google and all, but I was curious if anyone had any opinions on might be causing the issue? BF4 has had some times where I would load into a game and get only 15 fps, compare that to the usual 50+ and it's made me really sad.
Having an older build, I've been toying with the idea of a new build, however I wouldn't mind being able to put off a new build with trying to just address this issue in some fashion. I don't think there's really an issue with the graphics card, the disk drives shouldn't be failing, and I can't say I've noticed anything from the power supply... so im leaning towards the RAM (again I've gotten an error saying it couldn't reference). Any thoughts?
