7600GT Video freezes in FSX, video driver?
My rig: AMD 64X2 4800+, Corsair 2X 1GB 3500LL, ASUS A8N32-SLI, nVidia 7600GT 91.47 drivers, 2X 160GB SATA drives (non-RAID).
In Flight Sim X (FSX) I get frequent video (and then audio) freezes that last about 30 seconds and then the game plays OK, or it freezes again with another cycle. I've replaced my PSU to provide 500W (was 350), and replaced memory (Memtest86 indicated some errors) with some Crucial 2X512MB.
My next place to try is the video card and drivers. My old rig used a 6800GT with older 7x.xx drivers and worked fine. What functionality would I lose with the 7600GT and older drivers? I'm not sure of this issue is video card related, although if not then all I have left is the CPU and motherboard.
Thanks- Bruce.
