Its almost always during gaming, and its random however sometimes it can follow a pattern like every 3 hours, It happens more frequently when music is playing.
A64 3800
1gb (2x512mb) Pc3200 2-3-2-5
MSI RS480M2-IL
PNY 6800GT PCI-E
Lite on DVD/R/RW
Zalman CNPS7000B
Aspire X-Qpack
Antec 400W SP
Seagate 7200.7 120gb
Windows Xp Pro
Sound Blaster Live!
Origionaly the psu that came with the case was in there, but the other day the computer kept shutting off and I had read that the psu was ****** so I replaced it with the Lite on and added the sound blaster card (being that the onboard audio could be causing trouble) and then formated the hd and reinstalled windows, loaded up all the new drivers and waited. I ran 3dmark03 through the night and the first time i forgot to turn off the screen saver etc and it got cancled, the 2nd time it froze after only 30minutes.
Could it be a problem with the video card? I can still try different ram but thats about the last of my options as the only other PCI-E card i have is running this machine and there are no spare A64's lying around my desk...darn't.
