    Hi, I have an annoying problem, whenever I'm using ff3 for more than 1hr, I've noticed that my hd will start thrashing, the busy cursor start appearing, the computer lags, and eventually it will just hang with the busy cursor still spinning and the hd led staying on or I'll get BSOD.... I don't know what the hell is causing that but it is highly annoying
    The BSOD display:
    KERNEL_STACK_INPAGE_ERROR and the STOP error code is 0x0000007A.
    CPU and GPU are running at stock speed and voltages.

    have you upgraded from 2gb to 4gb recently?

    Run memtest86+ (2-3hours), bios diagnostic test and windows memtest tool

    Fixed! I did a chkdsk and the problem went away.
