My computer just shut itself off....WTF?!

[Muerto]

I was playing Counter Strike on the net whe I got a BSOD. When I pressed Ctrl+Alt+Del, instead of restarting, it shut itself off. Any ideas as to why this happened?

My core voltage is at 1.75 and I've been running it stable for months now. I've never had this happen before. Was this just a random screw up or do I need to replace the power supply or something? Thanks.



BTW the power supply is a generic one.

Needed a break? Right.



I'll give it 15 minutes and try it again.

If it recurs, look for video driver update.

I've seen a failing power supply do that too.

Windows need a lot of &quot;breaks&quot;
