im hoping someone will know what to do here. i play a game called lineage2,
and about 5-10 minutes into the game (which is graphically intensive) my
computer goes blue, then restarts.

i thought the card may be getting hot, but after reversing some fans and
changing airflow, it doesnt seem to correct the problem.

i am using an abit kv7 board, ati 9800pro, 3000+ athlong processor, 1 gig of
crucial memory ddr400, and sata drive. any help would be appreciated and
thanks in advance.

What is your power supply's wattage?
