I've hooked a PC that is a P4 with a 6800 Ultra to my TV that has a 1920x1080 native rez. After a few minutes i get the blue screen of death and have to reboot. I have a feeling its overheating but I don't really get any unnormal video lag. Thoughts?

I know this is a noob question and my gut is saying its overheating but i guess i don't want to admit to the fact i cant play at 1920x1080

Put a fan in there blowing on the video card. WoW isn't very intensive. I played it at 1920x1200 on an 8500 All in Wonder with settings turned down.

It's not overheating.

Did you see any artifacts? No.

See initial line.

oh and while i agree that wow does not take that much PC...the new expansion does take a bit of a pc though. And thats where im playing. My main tower, a dell xps, I can feel the heat coming from the back of the PC while just running wow.
