StarCraft II Overheating Bug: Fixed

StarCraft II, the most anticipated game for this year, is now been a buzz worldwide. Game enthusiasts really did prepare for this one. Minimum PC requirements were posted over the internet before the game was launched. Did you upgraded your PC or did you buy new set just for this game.  Has StarCraft II melted your machine yet? Literally! there was a bug being found and Blizzard has officially admitted that it’s a known issue and that there is a fix to it all.

If you experienced this  overheating problems with your sysytem, need not to worry since  the fix-up is easy. Players are required to to add only a few of the following lines to your “Documents\StarCraft II Beta\variables.txt” “Documents\StarCraft II\variables.txt” file:

frameratecapglue=30
frameratecap=60

From Blizzard Customer Service:

The installer allows multiple copies of the game to be installed
Unlike previous Blizzard installers, this one will always let you install another copy of the game. It does not check for previous installations so be careful of how many folders you end up making.
Compatibility Modes will not work properly
Attempting to run StarCraft 2 on a compatibility mode (Windows XP SP3 from Windows 7, for example) will make it crash. Please run the game normally.
Certain screens make your hardware work pretty hard
Screens that are light on detail may make your system overheat if cooling is overall insufficient. This is because the game has nothing to do so it is primarily just working on drawing the screen very quickly. A temporary workaround is to go to your Documents\StarCraft II Beta\variables.txt file and add these lines:
frameratecapglue=30
frameratecap=60
You may replace these numbers if you want to.
User report – Security program flagging the beta downloader as a trojan
We had some reports where a security program might flag the beta downloader as a trojan. It is a false positive.
Black Screens
There have been multiple reports of black screen issues being related to the use of a Quick Cam webcam.
In some cases exiting out of the software has resolved the issue but others have reported a need to uninstall the software for the camera in order to resolve the problem.
There are also reports where some security programs like Comodo firewall can cause the game to start and stay on a black screen.
