Ravager Posted July 8, 2002 Share Posted July 8, 2002 Hey guys. I dunno what's wrong, but a) Sometimes when I try to shut down or restart my computer, it doesn't want to. b) When I fire up a game, sometimes, while loading, my computer just reboots by itself. I have no clue what it could be. Any ideas? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 thingsforjason Posted July 8, 2002 Share Posted July 8, 2002 it's probably broken. is that vague enough for you? :D sounds like it might be video card related...drivers possibly, since it's rebooting when you start a game...could be time for a reformat. what os are you using?

0 Ravager Posted July 8, 2002 Author Share Posted July 8, 2002 Im using WinXP. Format is a worst case scenario for me. Its not my vid card (physically) for sure, cuz my dad's hard drive works fine. I doubt it's the drivers too... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
