Computer restarts in middle of playing game?
Sometimes when I play a game my computer restarts by itself? I think it might be a driver error?
I am on WinXP. |

Could be a couple of things. Do you get a error first like a BSOD? I guess it could be a bad PSU or overheating CPU or something like that, specs might help.

yea, i would guess something overheating. to make it so it doesnt restart right away, so u can read teh BSOD, goto system properties, advanced, startup and recovery settings, then uncheck automatically restart.
then u can read the BSOD, and help figure out the problem |

did u disable the auto restart? to get the error, u have to disable automatic rebooting. Then you be able to determine the problem.
