Nvidia 5900Xt 84.21, Drivers up to date
Hd Wd 160, justgot it two weeks ago, i scaned it with the WD tool, no bad sectors, allso defraged it, all good.

Is your PC running very hot? I've had similiar issues with FEAR, jsut froze up after 5min of playing. I opened up my PC and cleaned the dust away from the insides and it's been perfect since. Dust causes heat and heat = problems.

Just an idea.

it might be it. When i opened up my case there are no freezing. how can i know if the graphic card is the problem or maybe the processor?
