pc reboots while playing games
Posted by Dan G. on October 17th, 2005


Sometimes I have they same problem that the computer restart or the game I
was playiny will kick me out. When the system reboots and sends out the error
report it always comes back as a device driver. I have updated all my drivers
and BIOS. Any ideas?

What is the exact error message that is produced when the computer
reboots? That may provide a clue as to what the underlying cause of
the problem is.

Good luck

Last night I ripped my machine apart and replaced the memory and the video
card.
The system has run great ever since. I think that it might have been the
memory.
Thanks for all the quick replies and the help
