Lock up

The fact that most of us are playing without lockups means that the lockups are most likely due to hardware.  AH has never locked up on me.  (I've been playing since beta tour 1.)  I think I've been booted to the desktop about 5 times in this 1.5 year time.

I have been running smooth the whole time I have been here....well other than the very beginning when I was using an AMD 550 mhz with on board video.  Was pulling a whopping 5 fps!!!  Awesome!!  I had 5 discoes this month but I attribute that to the fact that Northpoint was turning off their network.  They all happened in one night.  Up and running on Swbell ADSL and having no problems at all.

  Had a sever case of the lockups when i
first started AH.  It happened when i moved
from Voodoo 3 to geForce 2 MX.  My card performed well in all my other games.
  (CFS, CFS2, Janes WW2 fitrs, EAW) however
it wouldnt make it 5 minutes in AH.   I
did the whole 'current driver' thing but i
suspect my power supply was the culprit.
  Had a 250watt, installed a 300 watt.  
Havnt had a single problem since.  May
be worth the 45 bucks to update to a 300watt
 if you havnt got 1.
