hey guys.
OK so..I bought a brand new game called PREY..ive played it for about 1 hour 20 mins..I then took a break for 1 hour..I then launched the program again..and after 10 mins of gaming..the computer completely shut down and then rebooted right away without me pressing the boot up button...then after 3 seconds I heard this strange noise and boom,...the computer just shut down??
I then waited for 10 seconds wondering wtf just happened...then I clicked the button to boot it up..and all I heard was a weird sparky noise..I instantly switched the power off the plug due to it sounding not normal...
Ok so..I checked inside my comp and everything appeared normal..no strange smells or anything looking wrong. I tryed to boot it again..but this time nothing happened...no noise and no picture.I then messed around inside wondering if any connection to the mainboard were loose...it still failed..but then..I took the switch out of the mainboard that connects from the comp case..the boot up switch..and put it back...and boom..it worked??? everything is back to normal again..or is it?
Iam scared that this will happen again..is it anything to do with PREY?? everything is turned on..AA is 2X and AF is 2X playing on 1280x1024..my specs are:
GeForce 8800GTS
AMD Athlon 64 3200+ 2.0Ghz
1.5gigs of PC3200 DDR DIMM 400mhz RAM
Wins XP home
my specs or given by my name for further viewing.
Can someone help me here..is this a freak thing..which I hardly think so..and should I do something about this?
