When i play CS source i get in-game and i can maybe play 1 round or so than the game just freezes up and most of the time this error message will come up "The instruction at "0x2417a02b" referenced memory at "0x00efed0". The memory could not be "read". Click OK to terminate the program. it wasent doing this at all in the last few weeks and all of a sudden it started and i didnt change anything System Specs Pent 4 3.0ghz w/HT, 1gb DDR ram Radeon 9800xt 512 on-board 60gb harddrive

Any other games doing this? What about Half Life 2? First thing is test your RAM. http://www.memtest86.com/ "President Bush is doing everything he can to lower gas prices, including...making the oil companies so rich that maybe they'll get sick of money."

well i went into my BIOS and my active temp is 158 degress F, could this be the problem, i havent put a non-stock heat sink on my CPU and i didnt buy any fans when i got the computer just got the one that came with the case

Cool your case first before you replace your stock heatsink/fan unless the stock fan is not running properly. May want to try dusting it and the heatsink out as well. "Pat Buchanan, Bob Novak, and G. Gordon Liddy don't like Mark Felt. Mark Felt is truly a great man."
