Hey Guys. My computer keeps crashing on startup. My only option is to go into safe mode. The crash is either a freeze up, or a blue screen. Right before these crashes started happening, I was playing Just Cause 2. My computer shut down, and when i turned it back on, these problems started. I cant access my computer at all. Also, I used setfbs to overclock my cpu from stock to 2.7GHz. Here are my specs.
i7 920 at 2.7 GHz with the stock intel heatsink
gtx 460 overclocked
8gb ram
I thought it was overheating at first, but im using an antec 900 with all the fans in. So id be very surprised if it was that. My only other idea was that the video card was defective (its not even been a week since i got it) because sometimes, there are artifacts on the screen while its booting up. I would really appreciate it if someone could tell me what the problem is. Thanks in advance.
