Games Crashes

[Noobone]

Hi,

My Video Card is Radeon 9600 and i bought it for about 3 years. Now when i play games where it takes more out of the PC the game will crash. I mean, the screen suddenly turns black and lose the signal. Sound is still there and screen is away and i cant press anything. Also the computer stays on... The only way it reset.

what kind of games? games like: Rome: Total War and Now: Lord of the Rings: Battle for Middle Earth II. I am suspecting that it is because of the video card. But i'm not sure of it. Can anyone help me out of this?

btw: This only happens when there are many troops on the field... never in the beginning and never with First Person Shooters..


thanks in advance

Game settings might be off for the type of monitor. Try a different monitor, and change the resolution in the game, not your computer.

It could also be compatibility issues.

What about some details about the machine and especially the power supply? What about temps and ventilation? Does this only happen with gaming?

Well, i think i have a good monitor. And my resolution i use in game is like 1024 x something... forgot ^^ I already lowered the grahpics settings to Medium instead of High. And it still happens, ONLY IN GAMES. Two games so far: Rome total war and BFME2. Both Real Time Strategy games. (sorry for my english)

Do you know if the game should be able to run on your computer or not? Do you have enough RAM, CPU Power, right Operating System, and right video card?
