My PC (P4 1.8Ghz, Win XP Pro, 512 Mb RAM) keeps shutting down unexpectedly,
usually with a loud 3 second beep. This only happens while playing games
(Unreal, various versions, LOTR: Battle for Middle Earth, GTA 2 through San
Andreas,). It does not crash while using other applications, such as MS
Word, IE6, etc., or while idle. My antivirus is current, I had an extra
video card (with 256MB ram) which I swapped out ‘cuz I had the time, the
interior is clean with little dust. Heat hasn’t been an issue in the past,
but maybe it is now? If a possibility, how do I monitor the interior heat?
Any other suggestions? Thanks in advance.
