Games quit out, and somtimes computer restarts randomly
Alright, heres what happens.
One day i was playing some steam and all of a sudden it frezzes. i go to task manger and try to end the process there, but it says "error" cannot end program when it is locked[eventully had to restart]. This has never happend to me. Other time when i was playing some wierd game named "Rakion" , It froze, and i did the same steps, and it told me the same thing, except that it restarted my computer. When I logged into windows it gave me somthing about a Device driver malfuction. I got the new drivers for my video card, but it still does the same thing: 1. freezes random times 2.either lags you out and quits you, or just plain restarts. I want to know if this is a virus or somthing im not doing right. Please answer as quick as you can. -Mario [Geforce6800 GT] <----just in case u need 2 know vid card Last edited by Mario4k5; 06-21-2006 at 10:12 PM.. |
