Well windows own wireless configuration has a 'feature' that is fine for a work PC but crap for gaming. Every 30sec or so it will send a burst checking the wireless status etc etc. This causes a spike/lag with most games. The way round it is to install a third party wireless configuration (most wire...

Other things that may cause the problem is lack of power to the GFX card ;) Did you self install? Upgrading the bios.... Find out what motherboard you have, when you boot the PC a makers name should appear like ASUS then hit the tab so you can see the boot screens and you should see the motherboard ...

Re: Sprays and Window 7
LOl no!
Think its something to do with windows 7 allowing programes write privlages etc. As when I make sure the counter strike folder is write enabled it turns itself back to protected... So don't know whats going on there.
