64bit processor problem??

so I got a 4200 x2 64bit processor, and I heard of a problem with this (or maybe it the windows 64bit version) but I have to restart my computer almost every two hours (mainly when I am playing a game, such as warcraft III). Basically, everything is running smooth and fine until about 2 hrs in and t...

see it's weird because it usually works just fine even in the most intense parts of the game with the most action happening. Usually the problem starts at the beginning of the game when a MUCH lesser pc can run it well. For example my old computer, 1ghz 256 ram, onboard video (e-machine) could run i...

gaming problem

Okay so I am playing Warcraft III online, with settings maxed out at 1280x1024 and it runs perfectly smooth and fine (even in the biggest of battles). Then, randomly maybe after I play a few games, BAM, I get what I call frame rate reduction. It could happen right at the beginning of the game with n...

ask them if they have a student software bundle. That's what I did, they said you can order it on the site here @ ______ . Just needed a username and password to access it. Then I ordered it. It was pretty easy. But that's for my school.

I play a LOT of RTS namely warcraft III but starcraft as well. SC is nearing a decade, wc3 4 years. Now c'mon they aren't graphics intensive, but they are fun and as addicting as all hell.
