Overclocking Radeon leads to game crashes
I had overclocked my ATI Radeon 7000 64MB to 171MHz from 153Mhz. It seemed
to run stable in Wolfenstein: Enemy Territory for a week. However, starting last night, whenever I enter a level of the game, the game crashes with a "memory read error" out to Windows. However, the screen is now a few shades lighter then it should be and it stays that way until I reboot (then it's fine again). I uninstalled the overclocking software and everything in running status-quo but I'm still having the crashes. Might this just be a problem with the game (that reinstalling may fix) or did I damage my (crappy) video card? Thanks for your advice, Mitchua |

Try reinstalling your drivers and/or the game. I've corrupted a few
drivers, and game files, this way. - Mitchua stood up at show-n-tell, in ogers.com, and said: I had overclocked my ATI Radeon 7000 64MB to 171MHz from 153Mhz.
