reboot prob...

by Z1ppo • 27 Nov 2007, 16:44 • Forums › Technology
Hi,

I've got a serious problem with my pc... When I play a game like Crysis or NFSPS my pc suddenly reboots for no reason... sometimes there appears this windows safe screen ("your pc was shut down to safe it blabla") and sometimes it just reboots...

It's pretty annoying and I dno the reason... I tried to update and reinstall some drivers but it didn't work at all :/


My system:
CPU: Intel Core 2 Duo (2x 2.4 GHz)
Sound: SoundMAX HD Audio 7.1
Graphics: NVIDIA GeForce 8800 GTS (640 MB RAM)
Memory: 2048 MB Dual-Channel DDR2-RAM
O/S: Windows XP Prof.


Anyone got an idea? Thanks in advance

Mhhhm I somehow can't imagine that...

I've got 2 huge fans for the tower + the fans for the gfx-card, cpu n stuff...

I was able to lower it a bit thanks to the nForce Temperature Control... hopefully the reboots will stop now :/

just start the game and get in the 1st level. Than open the Temperature again. just look and wait.
If your Graphiccard is overheaten the pc should hang up. If your Processor is overheaten the pc should shut down. But i dont know when he makes a reboot :s

funny thing is that my cpu's temperature is fine, my gpu temp is a bit too high imo but if that doesn't cause a restart... what causes it then? :O

had it to untill the blue screen showed up, re-install your mem cards
▼
Z1ppo 27 Nov 2007, 17:17
You mean the RAM?

I looked into the Hardware-Manager and it says like 20 times "PCI Standard-RAM Controller"

Since I only have 2 RAM-Sticks it sounds pretty weird imo :O

also try using http://www.memtest86.com/download.html
make a cd with the iso and leave overnight or as long as possible. It will check ram for errors! or you could just try one stick play the game then the other. its a bit quicker

Found something in a hardware forum...

There they say I should disable the "Restart PC on System-Error"-Option...

Is it safe to turn that off?
▼
multiflx 27 Nov 2007, 18:02
it will still give BSOD then, but wont reboot straight away. turning it off is safe.

Maybe I can read the Error-Message then... thx for the info ;)

Try the ultimate bootcd for testing ram, cpu (or prime95 in windows) and harddrive. Also have a look at your event logs in windows... (start->run->eventvwr) and check System. Probably the best tip i can give you is disable auto reboot (System -> advanced -> click the 3rd settings button (startup settings) and untick automatic reboot). The automatic reboot thingy will cause your pc to show blue screens instead of auto rebooting, those bluescreens can give you an indication in what the problem is.
