:D I actually agree with you lot, i must be special.

I love em! I wonder which one I'll use as a desktop background when you post them on Flickr ;) :lol:

Haha yeah. Ah well, just waiting for a reply back from Overcockers. It's just weird that it was fine for about 3 months and just randomly decided to give up on life :hmmm:

Solved. Stupid Graphics Card. Worked perfectly for 3 months and it decided to die.

:hello: :lol: I think he's going to do an SFC on it later (Unfortunately its not Southern Fried Chicken, like my inital though would be) He's too busy trying to blow his car up on GTA4 :cheeky:

Hey guys, I've posted this up in a few places because me and Spongie are at a complete loss as to what's happened. We're thinking it might be a graphics card issue, but lets see if anyone here has an answer... 2 days ago I was playing The Sims 3 on the PC while Spongie was at work, which is what I usually do once I've cleaned the house. It was all working fine from about 2pm until he got home at about 7pm, at which time I put on our dinner. When I got back to the PC I had noticed it had frozen completely. I had previously quit The Sims and was just on the desktop screen. I restarted it, and it froze on the 'Welcome' screen on Windows 7. I've checked for similar things on Google and most of them all had a fresh install of Win7, or some other new hardware previous to the freezing, but this isn't the case for us. The last time we installed Win7 was when Spongie bought an SSD for the primary drive (about 3 months ago). And the latest hardware bought was the Asus GTX460 768MB (This one) which was just over 2 months ago. As I said, we're at a complete loss as to what's gone wrong, as there weren't any symptoms prior to the freezing. Also, It's booting up fine in Safe Mode. We've tried restoring it to a previous time, this helped a little, but it froze just as the screen dims after the 'Welcome' part. We've updated the graphics drivers, and it was working fine yesterday. But he's just switched it on, left it for 15 minutes, and its frozen up again. Same issue as before. We've cleaned it up using CCleaner, defragged it and checked any error dump files (I think he did anyway). Nothing at all is showing up! And its back to freezing on the 'Welcome' screen once more. So please, please, please. If any of you are still reading this can someone please point me in the right direction?? Thanks in advance.

Just put in the old GTX275XXX and it works seamlessly. Contacted Overclockers and we'll see what happens.

Nope, not that I know of.

Hey :) Welcome to the forum :)

I can 99.9% guarantee that you hard drive is not the problem! Try downloading new drivers for your hardware though.

TehJazzi are awesomes :D

Haha, I'm sure it was MarkeyMark :cheeky: I'm not allowed on it today though haha. Ah well, I've found something else to occupy my time with! :D

Andreaz to the rescue :evil: That was fast.

I used to do that.. Then realised just how badly made the original houses actually are :cheeky: :lol:

Well, from 2pm till Spongie came home from work (about an hour ago) I've been playing The Sims 3 on his computer, like I usually do. It's been running fine all day. As soon as Spongie comes home and I go to put dinner on, the PC decides to freeze. I did what you would usually do when a PC freezes, I restart it. Upon restarting, it crashes on the 'Welcome' screen. Every time. So as I've been on it most of the day I automatically get the blame and the silent treatment for the night, even though the only things I've done on it are: Start it up, Play The Sims 3, upload 2 photo's to Photobucket, go back on The Sims 3. GAH! :mad: Edit: It lives! Panic over :)

Houses that aren't rectangular were never you're strong point, were they? :cheeky: Anyway, though I'd update this thread as its dead and only you post in it :p I've just gotten back into the Sims after a short hiatus, and decided to post my latest house! Its still a WIP, I'm currently working on it just now so I'll probably update this post again later on http://i1042.photobucket.com/albums/b427/Jazzikins/Screenshot-1.jpg

No :) We can't give out save games on here. I'm afraid you'll need to try somewhere else, or start again.

I, for one, love the fact that he uses the Gallardo for whatever it was to make it like that.

Here's something you don't see everyday.. http://i1042.photobucket.com/albums/b427/Jazzikins/DSCF0287.jpg http://i1042.photobucket.com/albums/b427/Jazzikins/DSCF0288.jpg http://i1042.photobucket.com/albums/b427/Jazzikins/DSCF0289.jpg Parked on our street. We think he uses it as a track or drag car.

Haha yep, DC5. They are brilliant stock, but put a Gruppe M induction kit in it and ohmygod you'll pee yourself :lol: A good import is about £10k these days, although IIRC the UK spec models are £8/9k

Yeah lmao. It was just outside the dentist :lol:

:hello: I haven't read any of this thread because I cbaaaaa. But anyway. My lovely Spongie has bought me a PS3 for Christmas! I wasn't actually supposed to know but he can't keep a secret for very long :lol: So we shall be on GT5 just after Christmas day :bananadance3: My PSN tag thingy-ma-jig is TehJazzi, some evil person had already taken Jazzi.Bee and IT WASNT ME! :cry: So I shall see you people on the track!

I know that this isn't really an all round car that should be posted in here, but it's quite possibly my favourite car ever. I'd had the pleasure of being in one as an old mate had a Japanese imported one in white, and I just completely fell in love with it. http://i1042.photobucket.com/albums/b427/Jazzikins/2010-12-10095707.jpg

The art of jokes and sarcasm seem lost on the internet these days :hmmm: :mhmm: :cheeky: Happer Biffdaiii to youuu!
