Hello everyone,
I built a PC about a year ago and I've been having freezing issues. It mainly happens when I'm gaming which is why I think it may be a heating issue but I'm not too sure. When it does, freeze, everything locks up, even the mouse. At this point I have to restart by resetting the power. The strange thing is, Its not consistent which just adds to my headache of trying to pinpoint the problem. Any help would be greatly appreciated. (Below is the basic setup)
MSI P6N Diamond nForce 680i Socket 775 Motherboard
BFG GeForce 8800 GTS OC 512MB PCIe w/Dual Link DV
Intel Core 2 Quad Q9450 2.66Ghz 12MB 1333Mhz CPU
Kingston 1024MB PC5400 DDR2 667MHz
