Hello everyone, Im having some problems with 3 years old PC.

HW:

I5 2500k (Stock clock) - Asus P8P67 B3.1 - MSI GTX 580 - RAM Mushkin 2x2gb 1600mhz - PSU Sentey 700 ERP700SS

Windows 8.1 x64

 

Only while playing games (Civ 5 - Heroes & Generals - Rise of nations) I suffer from freeze/crashes, PC doesn't show a BSOD, the mouse pointer works normally it doesn't freeze (until I try to alt+tab or alt+ctrl+del), and from my speakers I can hear looping sounds.
The only thing I can do is a hard reboot. I try reinstalling windows, and the problem still exists.

My BIOS, drivers* and OS are update, I perform a memtest for 6 hours and show no errors, I can run prime95 + kombustor and everything is fine, no temps problems, GPU never go over 68º and CPU at 58º, and no crashes.

DSIM commands show no errors neither.

*I tried latest NVIDIA drivers, and old ones, im actually using 334.89 version, and the problem persist. 


Any help will be appreciate.

Cheers.

PD: Sorry for my english  ;)

have you made sure that DX is up to date along with .net?

When was the last time you did a fresh install of windows? something might be corrupt on the software side of things, also note that keeping windows 7 up to date actually reduces performance and security as some of the latest updates were full of security holes and some run shit in the background that otherwise wouldn't.

Sadly you pay more attention about being a "shittycopypaste" post than actually reading it.

Im on win8 not 7, and its a fresh install.
