Hi guys! i´m writing from argentina! i bought a G73jh last year and until a few days ago, it worked flawlessly. I installed Might and magic VI, but i didn´t work The computer restarted randomly.
But I was able to play hon and another games as usual.
However last week, i installed Shogun 2 and Dungeon Siege 3. Then the disaster began. Both games freeze randomly (from 1 min to 15 min into game). It first started with shogun, then expanded to dungeon, and afterwards to another games! I post a pic of my screen when it freezes. Some times a blue screen shows up. Sometimes i have sound problems too.
I have already tried the following:
update video drivers (from ati)
update bios (from asus)
update realteck driver
update windows
can it be a direct x problem? just guessing
any help will be apreciated as i can´t send it to RM!
thx for the help
sorry for my english!

Can you report your temperatures while gaming please

Have you tried rolling back the video driver to the one that came with the computer? I would try that first.
You do not mention updating the VBIOS. What version are you on?
I am on, Video BIOS Version: 012.020.000.032.038352
This will allow the newer ATI drivers to work properly.
Note Ralphman, if rollback of the driver does not fix it, I would not change the VBIOS yet!
Changing VBIOS can brick the computer. -
Vbios? i only updated Bios, how do i update Vbios?
i also want to try a fresh install for direct X but i don´t know how to unistall it ! -
That pic looks like the GSOD. You need to update the VBios.
Go back to the Asus Gaming Forum page and read the "read before posting" thread to find solutions to common issues such as the Grey Screen of Death.
Edit: If have any problems let us know.
Edit 2: the thread you need is called "How to fix your GSOD blues." -
it worked! Vbios update solved the problem! THX!
btW which is the highest temp tolerable for the gpu? i got a peak of 105C -
First clean out your fans - compressed air into the vents to shift any dust and recheck the temps under load. Otherwise you will need to consider a repaste.
G73 freezes! I´ve done everything!
