Define freezes? Your whole PC hangs and you have to hard-reboot it? I'd guess at overheating / gfx card issues.

BTW, I assume you dont play with the netgraph active? having the netgraph on completely kills performance if you have r_useSMP 1

Without DMA disk access your computer could freeze while reading big chunks of data from your hd.

Maybe i'm wrong but you should try to lower this setting since with 500 packets that PB are sending are bigger than with 20/30/60... Sorry for my english of i'm saying shit :x

that only change the delay to 500 instead of 30 (or whatever default is in q4)

It's a shame that you can't run properly Q4 with this setup :( If you already have updated all your drivers and don't O/C too much, I hope for you it's not an hardaware issue, did you try format ?

I have.

Then maybe you should consider the fact that this problem is linked to the usb one, can't really help you since i'm not in front of your computer but maybe something is wrong with your windows installation or your mobo :/

you need 5 ghz cpu and 2x512mb video card, you need 100mbit and an expensiv soundblaster maybe? q4 was not made to play together, i think it was only developed to sell hardware.
