It is possible there’s an extra version thrown somewhere, or it may be loading the version from System32 instead of SysWoW64

Not even possible. any attempt by a 32bit application to access System32 is automatically redirected by WoW64. the only way for a 32bit application to access the 64bit folder is to try reading c:\windows\sysnative. Anyway, if it was reading the file from the 64bit folder, it would fail to start with an invalid win32 image error message.

well, it wouldn’t be such an issue if the configuration was kept seperately to the local.dat, but since it is :< i’ve resolved to having to set the graphics and sound sliders back up after each major update.

any time i’ve left the local.dat after a major update i’ve loaded in either had one of the following

the launcher is actually an embedded flash applet, so updating your display drivers would be a good start.

after that, would be making sure windows is up to date, and that your RAM isn’t running at automatic settings.

my 920 @ 3.8 and 680 can usually get 60fps in LA, as long as no events are on packing the place with tree’s and fog.

dual gpu cards being the exception, no single gpu cards exceed 14a.

where multirail psu’s are concerned, the system and aux rails are usually completely seperated from the accessories and pci-e rails.

A GTX680 will use 16.25A at full power (195W) but you are correct in that the majority of graphics cards will be below this value.

Well, thats an exception again. True many 680 users do actually modify the power target, but for those who just care to game, it would actually be at 14a because the typical power target caps out at 90%, or around 170w

Shuts down all of a sudden in game. No heat.

Part of the issue with the momentus xt is the firmware itself handles idle/power management, So it is simply impossible to make it work for all users in every case. Should it be the momentus, it would be the fact the disk platter is spinning down during periods where all the data required is cached rather than be spun up and ready to access the next lot of data.

Seagate did poorly by not providing the drive with a configuration utility to adjust such function from the operating system.

the chip in that processor is based on the HD2000 (dual channel desktop i3 – i7)

GuildWars 2 minimum requirements is a HD3000+ (quad channel desktop i7)

http://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/Running_the_game

downloading and running the driver package @ http://downloadcenter.intel.com/Detail_Desc.aspx?agr=Y&ProdId=3319&DwnldID=22375 might help.

i was incorrect earlier in claiming that the 2000 had issues, it is the same architecture as the hd3000 so the driver update should fix things.

alright, then in that case, i’m not actually experienced in dealing with that error, or the fixes involved but some of the solutions from Steam Support involve

Reducing the amount of opened or mapped files (by removing hdd’s or disabling Antivirus utilities entirely)
Disabling any drivers that are enabled but not actually in use (Network, bluetooth and audio devices)

https://support.steampowered.com/kb_article.php?ref=5034-EIPV-6426
Another more involved method requires editing the registry to force a higher default pool limit, this requires downloading windbg, process explorer and XP debugging symbols so you can actually read the Memory pool values in process explorer (that parts a pain).

Before this turns into a total flame war…

@Tilrune, that graphics card you linked is the 2GB version of the GTX 650Ti. Personally, you won’t need the extra 1GB of RAM that card comes with. If you want to spend about 180 on a card:

Would be awesome if it was in stock (not sure if you want to wait for it)
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814133470 -GTX 660

Or…

http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814500275 -GTX 570
After the rebate it’s got a pretty nice price.

Edit: AND you get Duke Nukem! I’d buy the card just for the sake it comes with Duke Nukem (sarcasm)

1GB is easily usable on these video cards, so 2GB would be a boon.

given you’re on windows XP, it’d likely be a bad pool header or pfn list corrupt issue, which occurs mainly because XP’s driver pools are sometimes not detected properly at start.
