Howdy folks!
I've done quite a bit of searching and have not been able to find any fix to my issues so far. I'm only hoping that y'all with more experience in Crysis might be able to offer a hand.
It seems to be a common issue without a fix: after several minutes in-game, I crash. My first assumption was overheating, but my card is staying under 70*C throughout my play session. Next I started searching and found that setting the Core Clock down to 600 might help; no such luck. It also was potentially an audio issue, but I ruled this out being that it crashed when I hit "Apply" on the main menu. No sound necessarily involved there.
There are several main points that will crash it:
1) Several minutes into game play (or sometimes several hours; last night I played a good 2 hours Single Player before it crashed).
2) Trying to change any settings in the main menu (IE, bindings/graphics/audio). I can go through the menus fine, but when the red alert comes up to say "Are you sure?" I go ahead and click "Apply" and it kills my game.
3) Trying to join MP. The furthest I've gotten is to ACTUALLY loading a map (but never actually getting on the server). I've crashed at several points before then: from the login prompt to the the server join attempt.
Following is my system (relevant stuff):
Windows 7 64x
AMD Athlon X2 3.0GHz 4-core
nVidia 465GTX (using most recent drivers; just to note, had the same problem with older drivers)
4GB DDR3 RAM
If anyone has any idea what my problem is (at least this problem... let's save the personal bashing for later

), I would really appreciate it.
Much thanks,
