Here's the question and situation:
My computer Gateway 550gr 3.2 g, 2 ram, nvidia 8500 pcie.
The video card was recently installed replacing a radeon 300.
During gameplay my computer froze. The chat became smears of color. This only lasted maybe a minute, but then on logging out it froze up again. I had been playing for about 3.5 to 4 hrs.
I have a 300w ps. I am wondering if this was from overheating ( no idea what temp it was, but the room was warmer than normal), or if i need to upgrade the ps. Thanks much for any and all advice.
