After a 15 minutes of pure fun, my computer just shut down, no BSOD, no warning, nothin'. My specs are:CPU: AMD Anthlon 62X2 5000+ Black Edition 2.6GHz GPU: Nvidia GeForce 9600GSO 384Mb VRAM, 128Bit RAM: 4Gb DDR2 800MHz Kingston Motherboard: Biostar NF520-A2 TE AM2 OS: Windows 7 32 Bit PSU: Platinum 400W Now any game i play my computer shuts down... Can this be caused by bad PSU, dust, high temperature or something else? Please help me. Do that before doing anything else.

| | All of these drivers are up-to-date. I saw some people getting problems like this, and they determined that problems were caused by bad RAM. I am pretty sure my RAM memory is good ( I bought 2GB DDR2 like 2 weeks ago ) and i removed the old RAM, but i still get this problem. Maybe it has something to do with my very bad motherboard. |

Does this issue only happen with games? |

| | Yes, games only. I can work in Autodesk Maya or Solidworks for hours without my computer shutting down, but while playing games it only takes about 15 minutes. |

Does your graphic's board have a fan on it? also you said your machine was clean but what about the heat sinks on the graphics board? your Nvidia GeForce 9600GSO does have a fan, make sure that the fan is clean and the input and output air paths are not constricted.

Rich I'll try reinstalling the GPU drivers and see if that helps. ... Shutdown!  Heeeeelp! Last edited by 4eyed; 04 Apr 2011 at 11:53 AM.. |

| | Ok, seriously, this is pissing me off. I WANT TO PLAY GAMES! Where could the problem be? I want to fix it myself because my mother has to do some AutoCAD projects 'till saturday and she won't let me take my computer to the computer service because it may take a few days. So... Are there any tests, drivers, anything that i could try and hopefully fix this problem? I haven't updated my BIOS for like more than 2 years. Maybe this has something to do with crashing?
