Hi
I'm running Win 7 32 bit. DX9 on a 9800GT. I get complete game CTD after 20 mins or so of gameplay. No error messages whatsoever. I updated my video card driver. Then still got the crashes but in RE5, L4D and L4D2 I also got drops to 10fps for 5 mins making every game unplayable. I've reduced all graphics settings, but that doesn't help. I can also play any other game as hardware intensive as RE5 for more than 2 hours, so it isn't my graphics card overheating etc.

I rolled back to original driver, stopped the massive frame drops, but still get the crashes every 20 mins. I've looked around the forums and it seems I'm lucky, at least I can play for 20mins without a crash...

Any help/ tips would be much appreciated.
