re: Question about 'What to do about a Page-fault, Illegal operation, or Fatal exception Error' Sunday, May 11, 2003 at 3:40 pm Posted by LBowman (6 messages posted) Make sure that the automaticaly restart option is not checked. /Control Panel/System/Advanced tab/Startup and recovery settings. Then there is a checkbox under system failure. This solved my problems of random restarts in games.

It was annoying to have this happen unexpectedly. I read that it might be the video card software that needed an updated driver. That didn't make sense because the card was brand new. The other possibility was that the memory was bad. I ran a check with software I downloaded showing the memory to be fine. Then I noticed that the memory voltage was higher that it should be. So I changed it in the bios. Not the system seems rock solid.

Set your refresh rate on monitor at a lower setting thats reasonable for you,and lower setting to 16 bit rather than 32 bit. Then within the game settings,lower your resolutions and AA settings,etc......It allowed me to play for 20 minutes longer than when I had it all maxed out...Let me know..
