For stupid nonsense, it actually has happened in the past, ages ago, I believe it was on Windows XP
Alright then. No idea what you're talking about.
but what have you suggested?
Interesting.
What you suggested is analogous to somebody being mauled by a bear and you suggest they eat a lime wedge. Completely unrelated. mixing NTFS and FAT32 is a performance thing and will not cause the symptoms described by the OP.
The issue is almost certainly the graphics card, not their choice of bloody file system.
It was only one of many I suggested to solve the issue at hand.
In the game of darts, even a blind man eventually hits the bulls-eye if they throw enough darts. Or if they aren't actually blind and are actually a dart hussler.
Also if you used NTFS over FAT32 you would have a better system and performance
And they could probably get better long distance service if they had listened to Deloris instead of hanging up on them. But that has absolutely nothing to do with the OP's issue.
This forum is nothing but a joke, trying to prove who's the biggest geek
Seriously, you really should take the advice of the ol' Contrex, and stop. The best part here is that your first reply threw a bunch of darts at the board, one of then hit it (the graphics card) some people (such as myself) agreed with this and then suddenly your trying to discuss the semantics of different file systems and inventing scenarios where having two different format drives can cause issues.
rather than helping out people with their problems.
Oh yes, of course.
Problem: Computer crashes during GPU intensive operations like games and Video card stress tests.
It's so obvious the problem is that they are using two different file systems on their drives. How could we all be so blind.
Freaken microsoft lovers with no virus scanners, thinking they are secure, lol.
oh. yes. it all makes sense now. we don't agree with your wild claims that file systems that have gotten along for years in all sorts of different configurations causes Graphics cards issues and now we're suddenly part of some global conspiracy that tries to hide the truth that FAT32+NTFS = Video card related crashes. Not sure where Virus scanners comes in. Guess that has nothing to do with anything.
I didn't say there's an issue with mixed format, for example one FAT32 and a NTFS drive, but if you end up putting the swap file on the other hard drive than the operating system, it has a fit swapping it across the two which can even become unstable.
Yes. that's Exactly what you said.
Mixed formated hard drives, like a FAT32 and a NTFS hard drive, it is best to make them all NTFS format, if your 'swap file' virtual memory is on the other hard drive from the Operating System it can cause crashing if the format is different.
Whatever the case, you've just proved Allan so right with your two completely off-topic and meaningless posts.
and he gets upset when others call him on it.
So... Bravo. You've got everybody's attention now. Anything else you like to say? perhaps you'd like to make more off-topic and random quips about how you disagree with how we choose to configure our own computers. because, I think the Original Poster is So totally getting helped by such complaints.
