Hey guys,
Thanks for taking the time to read my post. I built this rig last year in an effort to better understand computer basics and to also be able to play a variety of games.
I am using:
Q6600 Core 2 Quad CPU @ 2.4 Ghz
MSI P35 Neo-2 FR Mobo
2Gbx2 OCZ Reaper PC2 6400
Nvidia GeForce 8800 GTS
500Gb HDD Sata
PC Power and Cooling Silencer 610w Power Supply
Windows XP Home SP2
The issues I am having appear rather frequently lately. I play a lot of Steam ( Valve) based games and when I load in to game sometimes it locks up on the map or when loading to the next map. I can turn off the comp via power button and when it restarts it boots but will not load Windows. then I have to power down and restart it again. Any help in this area would be greatly appreciated as I am quite a noob when it comes to properly troubleshooting comp issues. Thanks again.
