computer shuts down when playing games

[Guest]

I have 512 ram 2GB

When I am playing games that I have downloaded, the computer will shut down
in the middle of play. This only happens when playing games.

Hi

Have a look in the Event Viewer and post any 'Errors' that you find there.

HI

The error reads and this showed up daily:

The mrtRate service failed to start due to the following error: the system
cannot find the file specified.

Thanks for that advise.
I have completed that. rebooted, played a game and couple minutes later the
system shut down.
