Concerning your upgrade, what brand and model is your motherboard?

As for Far Cry crashing, be sure you're fully patched. There's half a dozen of patches for Far Cry, all helping compatibility and adding functions. Try to heat your video card by running a few instances of RTHDRIBL with maximum settings. See if your computer crashes.

I ran three instances for a good 2-3 minutes and no problems. Although it appears when there is a 3D intensive game on the computer's fans are a lot louder. So I'm being lead to think there's a blockage of dust in the graphics card's fan. Which I will clean out tomorrow and report back with results for.

Let it for more than 2 -3 minutes. Try 4 instances all showing up with maximum anti-aliasing + anisotropic filtering and all the effects on, all side by side or something. 15 minutes or so should heat it enough.
Consider it might not be your graphics card that is the problem, but your CPU fan or such since you said it gets noticeably louder normally. RTHDRIBL will not stress your CPU in the way a game could.

Edit: lol cmm

Can anyone tell me the command to use a CD image on DOSBox for this image:

\Games\PC\WO\wipeout.bin
\Games\PC\WO\wipeout.cue

??

[polobunny]

Oh be sure to update your graphics driver too, just in case.

My motherboard is a GIGABYTE 965P-DS3

Mount the image to a virtual drive, then mount it in DosBox.

I can't remember exactly, just type help if this isn't right, but assuming your virtual drive is E:, type:

mount cd-rom E:\ D:

And it should mount the image properly. Then just type D:\setup.exe or whatever :P

I donnu if the \ actaully goes on the end of E:.

Yes. I want to read the DISC IMAGE not a virtual drive.

I plan on converting it to Xbox using DosXBOX, there are no virtual drives on Xbox so I would have to type in the mount image command manually.

Readme has all of that info...

[Panda Man]

^^^ I think it's basically the same.

mount cd-rom \Games\PC\WO\wipeout.bin

[Inferno.]

^^^ I think it's basically the same.

mount cd-rom \Games\PC\WO\wipeout.bin

Didn't work, gave the usual error "to mount type c: c:\windows" or whatever

Then try

mount cd-rom \Games\PC\WO\wipeout.bin

[Inferno.]

Then try

mount cd-rom \Games\PC\WO\wipeout.bin

Same as before.

[Panda Man]

Then try

mount cd-rom D \Games\PC\WO\wipeout.bin

Just try different things Try aiming for the cue sheet as well.

imgmount d [iso \Games\PC\WO\Wipeout.bin] -t iso is meant to be the correct command.
