Well for some reason when i play games for about 5-10 mins i will get a restart, but using my awsum 1337 brain i knew to turn off the automatic shutdown so i would get a bsod.... yeah i get sum bsod but i forget what it is because...
ok i got this brand new system i built and decided hey i'ma get x64!! well x64 is horrible, but games still ran fine. after about 3 months or so i started getting the bsods, they would only start in games after playing for around 30 mins. Then it got worse and worse, eventually i could play games for like 2 mins and i couldn't even watch videos. i thought it was just x64 so i used linux and linux was fine... wanting to use windows stuff without having to do dificult stuff i get normal xp sp2. I install and get bsoded while installing. after about 3 tries i get it on. No shutdowns, well for about a month and now its started back up again... i hear it might be mobo problems but i want to know if anyone has any other ideas.
I tried removing memory but the computer won't boot without all 4 sticks in, it gets to the memory test at my startup and just freezes, i ran test on them though and they all pass.
Also my northbridge gets hot.. its not the cpu and not the videocared...
heres my system
amd 64 3800+ 2.4 Ghz
1 gig of ram (256 x4)
SOLTEK SL-K8TPro-939
