Well it went longer without a crash this time than last, which, given the error, still leads me to believe its the ram. Still running at 1.575V? Have you got any other ddr3 ram around you could try out?

3 suggestions come to mind based on those I have helped with similar issues (including the 0xc..5).

First: Windows Updates, including custom.
Many times microsoft will surprise us and fix problems they have previously stated as being not their responsibility to fix. This leads to developers to hotfix the issue which can then have adverse effects when on the whim of Bill they decide to instead fix said issue. It is an obnoxious dance you may be stuck in the middle of. After this I would still make sure nothing funky is going on with windows. I instinctually blame windows, so I would also check sfc (system file checker) if you think there is any chance there could be something funky from windows.


Second: Hard Drive, current state.
Start by checking the SMART, (for those unfamiliar http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparison_of_S.M.A.R.T._tools ) your model of HDD seems to have a higher than normal return rate. If that is looking solid, I would run chkdsk.

Third: Computer Management (Manage from right click my computer)
Watch event viewer listing and performance when things are going amiss. These can give you clues as to related issues.



I don't understand at all what u r saying

Im not too good with computer just only basics

after i saw the link i was so confused

Regarding SMART data, run CrystalDiskInfo. I mentioned this in my earlier posts - this is just to rule out the hard drive.
http://crystalmark.info/software/CrystalDiskInfo/index-e.html

See if you have anything under the Raw Values column for
05 - Reallocated Sectors
07 - Seek Error Rate
and C4 through C8.

I'm pretty sure you won't find anything, but this is just to rule it out.

Thought I'd reword this. Considering you've been crashing with both sticks in, and each stick individually, I am hesistant to still point to the RAM. Normally this would have me thinking you need to bump vNB or VTT (called system agent voltage on MSI boards), but I dunno how important that is on the p67. The other thing is we have already considerably relaxed the timings from cas 6 to cas 9. I suppose we could still try 1.55vDIMM, but it seems somewhat moot considering the relaxed timings.

Are you still overclocking your CPU currently?
With no power comes no responsibility?

As mentioned, you should go into the BIOS and try turning the RAM voltage up a bit.

i've been getting the exact same problem.
if i play 5 games one of them would be like a fatal error .
im pretty sure this is something with the patch =/
i've tried just about everything to make sure nothing is wrong on my end (hardware wise)

edit :
it's just extremely weird that this is only happening to some people and some are not having any problems;
i don't mean to sound so negative but judging by the fact that other people are also having this same problem, i don't think doing anything on your end will change anything.

Hey select, it might be your recently installed program or windows update.

Try to system restore it to like 2 months back or as far back as it will let you. Don't install any windows update or any programs after restoring the system - just starcraft 2. Then play like you normally do. If everything works, its probably a program that's causing the problem.

To system restore on windows 7: Right click on My Computer->Properties->System Protection->System Restore

Hope this helps.

Edit: I also just build my sandy ridge 2500k with Asus p67 board though. No starcraft 2 crash for me. I haven't updated my service park though. Or rather, it won't let me update it, lol.

Edit2: Make sure to backup your files!

Control Panel\All Control Panel Items\Windows Update\View update history go here and see if an update occured roughly when it started crashing. if so click "installed updates" and uninstall that update

Just system restore. It should work. it will return your computer to when it was working.

It's unlikely that it will kill your hard drive, but in case just save some really really really extremely important thing on a flash drive or email to yourself. then do it.

there was no time it was working all i did was format reinstall window 7 and install sc2 and play

the bad thing about window 7 is that I set it to "never update windows"

i turn off my computer and it was updating automatically when i click "shut down" button.

I really don't like window 7

From the other reports I'm hearing described it could just be a problem with the latest patch on sc2. Increase the ram voltage slightly to ensure a little more stability (ram wise) but I do not recommend going over 1.575v (as does Intel) however there have been reports from a large number of people running a higher voltage and not having a problem.

Other than that I don't think the problem is on your end and you may have to wait for Blizzard or Microsoft to make a fix.

Select, I have the same problems. I have posted about it numerous times on SC2 Tech Support forums and they have been of no help so far. Will post back here if I find a solution.

I highly doubt that thousands of people's hardware is the problem all of a sudden after this patch, I believe Blizzard have broken something and this is all a fault on their end they must fix.
