RE: [hlds] OT: HL2 save screenshots corrupt
An asus k8vse deluxe with the latest bios update. Windows xp pro sp2 with all updates. AMD athlon64 3200+, 1Gb crucial ddr400, sb audigy 2ZS, 2X Hitachi 80Gb SATA hds (raid0), nVidia geforce 6800GT with the latest WHQL certified drivers. I have all the latest drivers for my chipset, sata controller, sound card, and video card. I ran multiple benchmarks on my system (cpu burnin, rthdribl, 3dmark) for hours. Heat is not an issue. The only thing that will make my system even burp is to run hl2. This system is capable of running 1600x1200 with high detail models, shadows, shaders, and textures and 4xAA, 4xAnisotropic filtering. This, however, causes the machine to die. I actually have to turn off the power supply for about 10 seconds to let the capacitors discharge. Running at the same resolution with details set to low and AA and filtering disabled lets me play.

Nope...already checked that. Both vid cards that I had tried were nvidia cards. The one I'm using is a 6800GT. It was working beautifully with maxed out settings at 1600x1200, and then...almost all of a sudden, the spontaneous reboots started happening. Same thing with an fx5200.
