keyclone current version crashing whole computer.

[ozzy1133]

I currently had a new computer built specifically for dual boxing. I previously was boxing on a 19 inch laptop and keyclone worked perfectly fine.
I installed keyclone on this new computer and it was working good for the first day or two, and now i start it up get in game with both characters and then after i invite one and click accept on the other
it crashes my whole computer and forces a full reboot. I am using windows vista 64bit. Anyone have anything that would help me out? it would be greatly appreciated.

Best bet is to send an e-mail or PM to KeyClone. He is on these forums like a troll j/k. Keyclone is Da' Man.

if you are running vista .. make sure to update to at least service pack 1.

vista prior to SP1 was very unstable (loads of driver issues... which this sounds like)

I'm having the same issue with my newly built PC running Vista 64bit. I'm 100% sure that mine has nothing to do with keyclone. It randomly crashes on COD4 as well and did so before I even had Keyclone. Some days it never has an issue and some days it crashes every hour. With troubleshooting so far, I'm leaning toward blaming my Ram. I have a Gigabyte board and Gskill F2-8500CL5D-4GBPK 2x2GB DDR2 memory. I've seen enough complaints about the pairing of the Gigabyte boards with this memory that I'm ordering another brand of Ram. I'm also replacing my power supply with a more powerful one. Changing the Ram settings and voltages didn't correct the issue.

Do you have a DvD/CD Sata drive? Unplug it for a few days and see if your issues go away. There are alot of bad sata drivers for Vista64 still. Also try unplugging all uneccessary external devices. Web cams, usb drives, usb keys, esata drives, etc...

lol.. the funny thing is my comp is very similar to bruceleroy's. and im pretty sure my dvd drive is sata. and i use 64 bit vista w/ gigabyte board and gskill f2-8500.. I took it to geek squad because i was thinking its a hardware malfunction and they said everything is running fine after they ran a diagnostic of the hardware. They said the only other problem would be the OS and i reinstalled it yet i still crash. I can box fine on my laptop but when it comes to my new desktop. FAILURE.

Thanks for the tip, Nitro! It appears both of us are using an Sata DvD/CD drive. I will give this a shot.

hah now after i unplugged the sata cd/dvd rom drive it crashes wow when i just run one.. im really pushing towards the g.skill memory w/ the gigabyte MB.

Same here, I unplugged my Sata DVD drive and it crashed 3 times in about an hour. I noticed that even though my CPU temp is nice and low, the heat pipe rig on the chipsets seems to be getting pretty hot. I transplanted everything into an Antec 900 case and shut off the heater vent in the room. For one whole day I got no reboots, then the next day I got several. I'm waiting for the new Ram to arrive.
