Hi guys,
I'm having a problem with performance of my PC.
As written in the Title, my pc is restarting and shutting down automatically and frequently. This is happening for 3 - 4 Months now. 1 week ago i bought a new graphic card, in hope this would stop.
So Far No Luck.
I Have no idea what can be culprit, my graphic card is not, that i can say for sure. If motherboard is troubling or processor is sick, i don't know. Please help me.
Tell me possible reasons for this problem, i'll try to fix them.
Thanks In Advance!!!

As a side note...
With only 2GB of system RAM, your 2GB gfx card is eating up too much of the system RAM. Win will set aside a chunk of system memory as a buffer, sizing that buffer according to the size of the VRAM the card has. You need to increase your system memory to 4GB. That will keep Win from using virtual memory (the HDD) so often, and speed things up.
