I have some problems, my pc works good when you are on the internet but when you start a game the screen turns black and the pc is still running (all the fans and stuff) but it dosent respond and i have to turn it of by the power button. Any ideas what is wrong? Someone that have had the same problems and fixt it?

I'm going to guess that you ended up putting in a better graphics card. Seems that may have happened on my initial gfx card that came in mine and voila, a little more nvidia power (oh and a psu upgrade too) .. solved everything.!

The video card or the motherboard or power supply could be bad. Are you running with an add-one card? If yes, take it out and test things with the onboard video. It may be slow but if it works you can test the video card in another computer. If it fails, get a new card that's compatible with your system. If it works in another computer, try a new power supply.
