I hate to say this but there was a problem. It&#8217;s pretty hard to explain.<\/p>\n<p>Anyway, I was in that part in the subway where Merc tells you that blues are in your way and take &#8217;em out.<br \/>\nI&#8217;m kickin&#8217; ass (I have a trainer), and suddenly Monitor 2 flashes, then Monitor 1 shows these strange horizontal blocks that go down, then they disappear, and I notice the colors are fucked up alittle bit.<br \/>\nAbout.. 30 seconds later, it hits. But it hit like it happened in Gmod. I couldn&#8217;t see anything but just fucked up graphics, but it wasn&#8217;t completely locked up. Just running like 1 FPS all the sudden.<br \/>\nThen I got a BSOD and my computer restarts. The BSOD displayed and disappeared too fast for me to read.<\/p>\n<p>Does this mean my lock up has finally made a come back? I&#8217;m not sure. You see, I think I played for something like 2-4 hours when it happened.<br \/>\nBut yet when I went back in, I was able to complete it with no problems, and I played it again for 2-4 hours. Maybe it was just a fluke, or maybe it only happens in that game.<br \/>\nMaybe the video card overheated. Yet I checked Hardware Monitor and it was sitting at 47C. That&#8217;s cooler than my old 9500GT.<\/p>\n<p>I don&#8217;t know if I should try another game after seeing that, even though in a way I was able to play the whole thing. Because it feels like it&#8217;s an unfortunate sign that the lock up has possibly mutated into something else now.<br \/>\nGod damn fucking thing can&#8217;t stay dead! But if it stays like that, that will give me time to exit the game before it does do the fucked up graphics thing. In a way it&#8217;ll be a bearable issue.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I just completed my 2nd run of Mirror&#8217;s Edge, and it&#8217;s as wild as it was on the first run. &#8230; However.
