My pc randomly reboots when playing certain games, Call of Duty is fine but when I try to play a racing game (GP4), after about 2 laps the pc reboots, I have updated all drivers, direct x etc, I have tried new memory and a new soundcard but no joy. Any ideas ??, thanks

Hi
Playing certain games generate a lot of heat. make sure you are not overheating, check all your fans are running.

Hi

All fans appear to be working ok, could it be something to do with the joystick as only the games that need it seem to have a problem ?, thanks
