I had installed a new video card on my pc. Palit 8800gt sonic 512mb PCIE.
The only problem is, I cant enjoy playing games with it cause my pc shuts down after 20-30 mins playing games. I tired it on these games: Halo 2 for Vista, Rise of Legends, Titan Quest Immortal Throne. I dont get a blue screen or anything when it shuts down, it just shuts down without any warning.
My specs are:
OS: Vista x64
CPU:athlon x2 5200+
RAM: 2gb PC 800 DDR2
VCARD: 8800gt sonic 512 mb PCIE
HDD: 160 GB sata
PSU:600w
Everytime it shuts down I check the cpu temp in bios, and it is below 50C (43-48C), I have installed the drivers for Vista x64 for Vcard, the PSU is already @ 600w so perhaps this cant be the component causing this problem. I was gonna try uninstallng vista and use xp but I dont have the resources to waste on an older version OS and perhaps I would experience the same problem.
Can anybody tell me whats wrong with my system?
