A strange desktop freezing problem

You still haven't told us if you tried disabling all addons and running the game (just in case), or if your drivers have been updated.

How much of your hardware is "new" to your machine, and how long since it was added that your problems surfaced? Sometimes "new" doesn't mean it works properly... I'm not saying this is the issue either, just don't want to rule anything out.

Not trying to beat a dead horse, just don't want to overlook anything.

I have Zotac 8800GT AMP! edition. The drivers i got with it crashed all the time,when i logged into windows. Got them uninstalled and put the newest 175.16 in, endning after some minutes with pcreboot, freezes only when playing wow or getting massage that i dont have directx 9.0c while trying to launch LOTRO.... lol??, but working in other games. So i go back to the last driver 169.21. Now i can play WoW and LOTRO without any issues.

tried with them disabled, didn't do a thing, i stayed and ran around shattrah city about a hour and half :P
also, I was pretty pissed off after it freezed 3 times in a row while clearing ZA with a pug raid :| and I opened the case, saw a wire pretty close to the GPU ... dunno if that could cause such a mess or it's just paranoia, but i put that wire away from the GPU. Really hope it works ttill i don't lose my minds

btw, my lil nvidia rolls with directx 9.0c too

This is why to test this..If it STOPS then its not your computer.. If its still doing it with out the addons then it is your computer.. Just try it and see

said in a post above, it still does the freezing thing without my addons (
Now I have no idea what to do, since I tested for viruses, spyware, memTest, registries are clean, hdds are defragmenteted and the temperatures are normal (

When did you get this vidio card? it might be defective? Have you tryed and older one? I had this problem alon time ago, my screen would bluescreen and had to restart my computer.. This might be something to look into.. Maybe borrow a card from a friend if you dont have an older one.. But i would try this.. =)

hmm I played Wow long time on my older PC and there I had no problems.
Not even on this new PC i didn't get any trouble before the 2.4 came in. Then it started all this annoying sh!t =/

the video card i'm using atm it's rather new, smth like 2 month old ...
