Games exit
« on: January 11, 2005, 10:06:40 PM »
Whenever I play any game, the computer all of a sudden restarts in the middle of it. Sometimes it just boots up and sometimes it freezes with colored lines across it and i have to manually shut it off. It started doing this a couple months ago and I tried getting all the drivers updated but it did nothing... heres some specs.

Windows XP Home
Processor:Intel Pentium 4 CPU 2.00 ghz
Memory: 510MB RAM
Intel 82845G Graphics Controller
Sound MAX digital audio

theres some stuff I dont know what else you would need but just tell me if you need more info.

Have you made any hardware changes lately? It sounds like your vidoe card either has gone bad, or needs more recent drivers....
