    im having a problem with my computer for some reason when i play a game it crashes and restarts the computer


    i dont think is a bad processor problem or memory or videocard everything is perfect works for hours only problem is when i play a game it crashes i think i might be a heating problem but im not sure about it since i dont know what are the average temperatures for videocards,cpu or anything like that


    motherboard 39c
    cpu40c
    gpu55c

    i uploaded an image with the temperatures

    there fine, a bit weird but fine. They do seem a bit off so try Speedfan and post those temps. Also what Graphics card do u have? Download Advanced Windows Care and do a registry scan. I had the same problem and that fixed it.

    ok here is the temperatures with speedfan is on the picture
    my graphics card is a x850 pro ati i dont know if i might need a patch for that or something but i doubt it since i reformated my computer and got drivers directly from website and it was like 1-2 weeks ago

    i might try downloading "Download Advanced Windows Care and do a registry scan. I had the same problem and that fixed it." and see if that can fix my issue but i dont know if that is the problem

    i dont know if the no-cd patch i put could be part of the problem but i doubt it since i had similar problems with games such as rome total war

    i played unreal 2004 a few days back and i had no problems the computer shutting down by itself and i played like for 2-3 hours

    oh yeah those temps are fine, i just recommeded Advanced windows care becase sometimes bad registry can cause crashes, but whatever u wanna do. And you're right u shouldnt need a patch for it. Also since you said that it didnt crash when u played that game for a few hours, it takes a bit of the overheating theory. One last program to check the Graphics Card temp, download ATI Tool (techPowerUp! :: Download ATITool 0.26) and repost it with those temps, I would try advanced windows care though

    well thats windows for you, i had the same problem a while back and sure enough a week later it just went away. I think its a reg. problem and windows is just a little slow handling it :)
