Why does my computer lock up and then restart when I am playing a game? I've had this problem for 2 years now and still can't figure out why. It locks up almost everytime when I am playing a computer game. When I received my Pentium 4 3.0 GHz, I did not find any thermal paste but on the top of the box it says with thermal compound. Does that mean I don't need to worry about putting thermal paste?
system specs:
Pentium 4 3.0 GHz (52 to 68 degrees)
512 MB RAM
80 GB Maxtor
Radeon 9600 256 MB
