Hello,
I have a problem where a select number of games end up with PC freezing for a few seconds then restarting. Skyrim and Arma II in particular. These games are both high end graphics games with large open spaces. What's interesting is that these two are the only ones that do this. GTA IV, Battlefield 3 and Witcher 2 do not cause a problem. I think this problem is hardware related, but I am not sure which component is to blame. My gut feeling is that it is either the motherboard or memory. Something about Skyrim and Arma II code that uses memory or data flow in a way that causes my system to crash.
My current specs are
Mobo: ASUS M4A78-EM; had to flash BIOS to install CPU
CPU: Phenom II 965
4 GB DDR2 memory
PSU: 600 Watt Corsair GS600
GPU: Radeon 6870 driver 11.1
Thanks for any assistance
