Ever freeze and when you try to ctr+alt+delete or ctr+shift+ esc it won’t pull up task manager but just stays froze ? If so, what do you do ?

I curse and rant and wonder what the hell is happening on my PC that I don’t know about.

Fire up the Hyperbowl ma, we’re going to town!

Would you like some hard cheeze with your sad whine?

This is usually a sure sign of Hardware Failure and not the game itself.

Either a CPU is overheating, there’s Bad Overclocking at play, a Memory block/timing is bad, or maybe even a whole harddrive sector could be scrambled. Though usually, it’s a Video driver conflict and either a new or older version needs to be installed.

Nope. Haven’t had any problems like this.

Only happened once. I ran a scan and everything is working properly so I’m thinking it has to do with the recent driver update.

Thanks for your reply.
