ugh... lol I spent 2 days painting my antec 300 pc case orange, and i come back wanting to play lotn and it's down! (( hurry up dude who owns the thing! I want my server back lol, I'd host it for everybody if I had the module but alas i don't lol I do have a 12meg down 1meg up connection though.

true enough, and i understand what it spawns because of the bosses aura of fear.

What about the cocoon in the spider cave that only ever spawns a single amethyst? *gets jipped* lol

I was just looking over your voltages again and I noticed your cpu voltage was at 1.04 most of the time which seemed a bit low. I looked it up and:
Core I7 920 overclocking :
The default voltage for this processor is 1.2V (1.16 with full load)

Do you have some power saving feature turned on that throttles the cpu? I also noticed it spike at 1.28 and you said it was idling, if it was really idling meaning you didn't touch it and it gave that spike that could be your problem. if it spikes like that when you're under load it could be basically stopping your computers heart lol.

I'd go into your bios and make sure the CPU voltage is set manually to 1.20 volts and make sure any power saving features are disabled. On my AMD processor there's "Cool 'n Quiet" that throttles the cpu to save electricity when it's not active lol. If I was that worried about saving .2volts for 20 minutes I wouldn't own a computer.

I'm hoping any of my posts are helping you. None of what I've said is definitive information that says hey it's problem xx. It's just more of an aid in the debugging process.

Have you run memtest to ensure there's no errors in your memory chips? I've had that issue before but it caused bluescreens not lockups. And see if you've got another computer with a video card in it or a friend with an old video card lying around to test it with. run it until the normal time it would approximately crash.

all your voltages are fine cept the +5 VCCH but for some reason mine hangs in the 3's too and I have a powermax 850w PSU lol (think it's powermax brand, I know it's black lol) and if you test the ram and it passes, and you test another video card and it passes, then we know it's your video card, if it crashes with another GPU in I'd RMA the motherboard and get a replacement. It's the process of elimination really. Memory, video, power, cpu. and I'd say HDD error checking if ya haven't. But I'd assume that would lead to corrupted files rather then system lockups. Never had a HDD fail on me though.

sucks that our times we get online are offset lol would be nice to be able to talk abuot it in close to real time lol.

In other news, I  found some generic DDR2 800 ram modules from a ghetto 600 dollar Acer desktop PC. slapped em in my computer for some extra ram, and they're running great at 4-4-4-4-10-16 1T and only underclocked them  by 67mhz. Just goes to show even the noname generic stuff can work good too..it's all about luck lol.

Lemme get ya a couple links for software to run.

Everest Ultimate(30 day trial) very clean software, features a burn-in test among others. I'd say run it on the components it lists individually for atleast 30 minutes a piece or however long it normally takes for your computer to die. see if you can single one out that locks up.
http://tinyurl.com/lf4mbs  <- that's a tinyurl version of the download from softpedia cause their link was HUGE lol.

ATItool (freeware) also clean software(while we're at it let's just assume everything I link is clean) This is a video card overclocking and testing tool. And don't worry it works for nvidia cards too despite the name. Edit: btw just press scan for artifacts, and it'll work your card really hard with that furry cube lol.

Memtest86 (freeware) the best memory diagnostic tool there is. burn the cd, boot it, run it.

As for opening the system crash dump hmmm...go here.

http://www.brighthub.com/computing/windows-platform/articles/29860.aspx

It's an article that tells you exactly what to do/get from microsoft to be able to analyze the dump(<- lol)

I wish ya the best of luck, i sincerely HATE computer problems lol I hate having them more then fixing them, i'll work on the same problem sometimes for weeks trying to figure it out. but that's generally in linux where you can't google every system option lol in windows it's generally easier. Make sure ya report back here with results cause if all that stuff I mentioned above passes I'd say Motherboard, which would really suck and I hope yours is still under the RMA time with newegg.

It sounds like a power supply issue honestly. Could maybe be your video card but if that was the case there might be some other clues.

Does your motherboard have an integrated video chip? giving it's an i7 board I'd say probably something decent, or atleast maybe an intel GMA video chip. Also about the power supply issue it could be dying which causes ALOT of random freezeups, or maybe you just didn't buy a big enough PSU(power supply unit) to power everything? Have these problems been happening since ya built it or only recently?

Try CPU-Z from http://www.cpuid.com/download/cpuz/cpuz_152_setup.exe to make sure your CPU and ram are running at the proper speeds. It's freeware. and totally clean.

And try http://www.almico.com/speedfan438.exe to monitor your voltages and temps as well as control case fans, it's a nifty freeware app and is clean as the falling snow as far as spyware/virii.

After you run speedfan report your voltages back to here please so we can make sure they're on par. Also don't just look at it one time. Monitor it for a while and see if they fluctuate. if your PSU is fluctuating voltages it's definately going bad (more then by 1 or 2 decimals, it's it's dropping or gaining entire volts then it's definately time to replace it before it fries your board or cpu or ram.)

If it all seems good try your onboard video chip and see if you get the freezes. Also Is your current video card overclocked? I'd imagine so with your setup. Could be causing unseen heat issues which cause the video driver to die on ya. don't know if the geforce cards have an automatic driver recovery feature like my radeon HD4850 which reboots the video card when it crashes instead of locking up the system.

actually I doubt that the helm and mystra deaths are directly related to the neverwinter surrounding camps. so it wouldn't take any effort to kill them off and roleplay it happening. people would wander around befuddled about why they've lost their powers or are having any other troubles lol. It would be VERY amusing even though I play magic users lol but I'd enjoy the event nonetheless.

Been hanging around for a while and I'm sure anyone who has RP'd with me knows I can RP eh joc lol. Anywho made a sorc the other day and I can go RD now, was just wondering if i had permission...

I suppose the only challenge for me would be to figure out the story behind turning into an RDD after mysteriously gaining powers when he nearly died..but I'd manage lol.

I've tried sneaking up and shooting, shooting in combat from sneak attack range, sneak attacking with melee weapons..frontal attacking with melee weapons..shooting from long range..pretty much everything it seems..

Is there some special thing I have to do to proc my DA or is it just broken?
