Need some help with rtcw crashing.

When I overclock my cpu to 225x11.5, rtcw will crash in game after a few minutes. Then there is a vpu recovery window wanting to know if I want to send a report. If I lower the fsb to 215x11.5 it is stable.

I can go thru 3dmark01 at 225x11.5 without any problems.

I have the omega 4.4's and it did it with the 4.3's.

AA & AF are off, everything set to high performance or always off.


Are there any settings in the control panel I can change to improve this?
Does anyone know what could cause this.

Well I'am not an expert but it could be your PSU that don't have enough power to give to your 9800 XT. You said that the VPU recorder kicks in and thats due to graphics card I think.
