Age of Mythology Crashes

[vidalexio]

I have a p4 3.0 ghz with 1gig of ram, and the pc runs fine and all but when i
try to play games, it shuts down in the middle of the game, sometimes it
takes 5 minutes, sometimes it takes 25 minutes, no matter what it shuts
down, ive been trying to play Age of Mythology gold edition, but i cant b/c
half way through the game it shuts down, like the entire pc powers itself off.

ive already replaced the fans, upgraded the power supply to 800watts and
changed the sound and video card.( i know these wouldnt cause the error but
just thought u should know whats in it)


Please help. my computer is going to go over the balcony soon...lol

Thankx

Vidalexio.

Hello,

You've pretty much ruled out everything except for the motherboard and IDE
cable.

If there is a latest patch for the game, try installing it and running the
game.

To determine whether it is a hardware or software problem, install XP to
another partition (taking care *not* to format the partition if you have
data in it), install the drivers and try running the game there.

If it works there, then you can be sure it is a software problem. Use your
new XP installation as your test bed by installing the latest update and
installing the game. This guide details more:
