Oki thanks for your time, any suggestions on a router?

bthomehub 3

Just did a speed test here http://beta.speedtest.net/result/6492774197

Hello, I have been experiencing this problem for the last couple of months and am really have had no joy fixing the problem.. I will attempt to explain everything as best as I can.. My internet provider is BT and im currently using the Bthomehub 3 I am experiencing packet loss whilst gaming (mainly CSGO net_graph shows loss and choke every roughly 10-15 seconds, causing rubberbanding) and in TeamSpeak only when another pc in the house (brothers pc) is also gaming. Both PCs are wired and he experiences no lag or packet loss when he is gaming. Any ideas on what could be causing the issue? Could the router itself be the issue?

Updated my drivers to the most recent performing a clean install. Ill post again in a few days letting you know if the pc crashes occur, or if that was the problem

Thanks will try that now.

Hey everyone, thanks for reading this post. Ive been having some issues with my pc. My pc is randomly blackscreening with a sound loop of the last heard sound on my pc. I have no idea what is causing the issue. It occurs fairly randomly. When im idle on the desktop, when im gaming, while im writing essays. I have attached a link to dropbox to download the .dmp file. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Hello, my name is Nathan, known on the internet as fox or homeless, my nick being "homelessfox" I’ve always been a very competitive person. I find fulfilment in succeeding and always try to exceed my limit. I’ve been playing counterstrike Global Offensive for the last year and have been having a blast, with total hours played nearing around 2k hrs. This mainly consists of pugs and mm and the likes, to consolidate the individual skill within the game. As time passes I seek more out of the game, I want to compete within a team with slightly higher or similar skill levels to myself, in order to improve. I am a very competitive person by nature and my work ethic in life is something I strive to improve every day. I practise myself 2-3 hrs a day individually pugging/death matching etc. etc. in order to continue to improve my individual game. The gap that I feel is missing in my game is the team aspect. Counterstrike requires 5 players in order to succeed. This is a message to any experienced counter strike player out there, looking for a likeminded individual for a team. To gain experience. I feel that I can bring something to a fairly skilled team and hope to contribute and improve my own game.

oh really? i wasnt aware. What are the benefits of using gsync?

Hello everyone. Basically im in the market for a new monitor and currently all i play is counter strike global offensive. ive been told that upgrading to a higher hz monitor makes the image more smooth and therefore easier to aim. Now my question is, what monitor should i get? ive looked at the BenQ XL2411Z and the asus vg248qe. Basically im looking for the absolute best performing monitor for counter strike, as i already have another monitor with nice image reproduction. Another question i have is should i wait for nvidia gsync monitors? and just hold off with my buy? Any responses are much appreciated, thank you in advanced.

Well it is kinda wierd. I uninstalled my gpu drivers (the current ones for nvidia). Then i reinstalled them and my ethernet port stopped working. The driver wouldn't work in the ethernet port. so i bought a cheap ethernet card and installed the gpu drivers i originally had? Now the pc works fine. I really dont know what to make of it haha!

ye, it turned out to be a driver issue! thanks.

Hello everyone! It turned out to be a driver issue.... and after reinstalling the drivers the pc hasnt crashed! Thanks for all the help, and sorry for the delayed response.

uninstalled all video drivers and used driver sweeper aswell. Downloading new ones currently and ill update you if the crash happens again. The problem is that i cant replicate the crash, its just random.

Hey everyone. So ive been having this problem with my pc for about 6 months now. On and off. It went away for about 2months and recently has re-appeared. Basically my pc will randomly crashes to a black screen with an audio repeat of the last noise i heard on my pc (a gunshot in game for example). This is happening randomly and i have looked at several things. This has happened over two different cases and im beggining to doubt its overheating. There is no pattern to the crashes, they just happen. Sometimes it will do it immediately after i boot back up again, and others it will be fine for 3-4 hrs before crashing again. GPU - Overheat At first i thought it was my gpu overheating, so i decided to put my fan up to 100% and under clock my gpu a little. This seemed to help but after a while the crashes reappeared and still occur. I monitored my gpu temps and they stay around 45 when gaming. I need help, any advice in troubleshooting this problem would be greatly appreciated. As always thanks to you guys for the help

Hey everyone, so i recently made another post, eventually i ended up doing a fresh install of windows 7 on my pc to fix the problem. That problem is fixed but now my sound card is not being detected? There is no sign of the soundcard being in my system? Any ideas? Thanks in advanced? *I have tried rebooting several times, also reinstalled the sound card* UPDATE In the bios my motherboard is detecting it, but in windows it isnt?

Hey guys, first off thanks for all of your help. I did use CCcleaner to see if it was a registry cleaner, nothing. Searched for viruses/malware 4 times,nothing. I never got a chance to try out that webpage you linked the "explorer.exe loop fix". I ended up just doing a fresh install of windows which seems to have fixed it. Thanks again for all of your help!

Currently runnin an avast boot scan, and it crashes when i use explorer.exe. thanks!

What kind of thing be looking for in terms of registry errors?

yeh, relaunching explorer.exe results in a insta crash, ill look into see if i have any registry errors and im currently scanning my pc against for viruses. Cheers for your help.

I might try another scanner actually good point, and ill try out some other things as re installing is the last option haha! Thanks anyways.

When this happens, it crashes. Thanks anyways

Hello guys, and first off thanks for taking the time to read this hehe. Today i booted up my pc to find a windows error "Explorer.exe is not responding" this then goes in a loop of restarting and crashing until i click cancel at which point the task bar disappears and so does everything on the desktop. I can access everything on my pc by using task manager and then command prompt. My wallpaper is still there but everything else is gone. Ive read up a little on some sort of virus which could of caused it, which boots up with your pc, but after scanning my pc nothing has been found. This issue is really bugging me, as you may imagine. MEANT TO ADD, that my soundcard has also stopped working at the same time? Has a yellow exclamation mark warning. Could be related? Any ideas? Thanks in advanced.

Ill reply soon. Busy bee this time of year. Thanks for input.
