Topic: GRID's Blue screen of death.

Hi guys,

Just installed the demo version of GRID. Putting the graphics setting to low, OC'ed using n10 tray, I think its relatively playable (although i think it's impossible to play without a racing wheel).

BUT, after about 10 minutes of playing, I get the BLUE SCREEN OF DEATH!!! every time!!!

Anyone had the same problems?

Yea,

Played Crysis with it, been stable for a long time...
Only turned blue-screen once with Crysis, but since then, no probs.

Ah well, I just won't buy this game, because it really is impossible to play without a racing wheel of some sort. lol

you've stress tested? if you're getting a BSOD then you aren't stable. even if it only happens every now and then. you need to stress test at 100 percent load for at least half an hour or so (so you cpu has time to reach peak temp)

it sounds to me like you're running on an untsable OC. crysis may not be putting as much load on the cpu as grid, which would explain why you're only encountering the problem with that game.

Re: GRID's Blue screen of death.

Not Demo!
Race driver Grid
As for me, fine.
2 hours of game is brilliant.
2.05 ghz + id settings ~24 fps.
Awesome game!
