No worries - we've had our fair share of hardware/software mishaps in the past too. Imagine a wrongly installed CD drive messing up the monitor... or bugging a hard drive so that it cannot recognize any files on it (even though they are still there). You know, viruses were very evil and hard to clean up back in the old days... some of them could only be cured by formatting the whole disc... twice!

I've never done any overclocking, so I have zero knowledge in this field. The best I can do is suggest you give the computer some rest once in a while :P

And speaking of problems, Quake 2 and Heretic 2 seem to be having a little "Who can crash more often?" competition among each other. The Quake 2 engine hates me for some reason. The good thing is that the crashes are somewhat predictable and can thus be avoided in 99% of the cases. (Gandalf voice) You shall not crash!!!

Good old Q1 engine is so stable, by comparison. Even a ton of abuse doesn't make it flinch.

In closing, here is a little treat - I found an awesome gallery of Heretic-related artwork on deviantART. Take a look when you have the time - here.
