My computer works fine, until I start to play any type of
game on a cd..it will play for about 10 minutes then the
computer shuts down, reboots itself. In startup it says
the the hardware monitor found an error. I have no idea
how to find the problem, I have entered set up menu but
cant locate what the probl;em is
 
Maybe your graphichs card (or perhaps cpu) is heating too much while you
play games. Some motherboards have heat sensors and if temperature gets too
high, the computer shuts down to prevent any permanent damage.
