i never update windows, i wasn't using a page file, and my system was OCed quite a bit.
I'm now re-installing windows.
So should i start using windows update?, i heard it's a good idea if you have a modern(SandyBridge) setup.
I've updated the bios to latest version too.
even when i loostened RAM and set things up to stock i was getting problems so i've zeroed my drive and now windows is about finished installing.
It was while watching a 2D to 3D converted film, i had been in Crysis 2 MP for hours without problem.
