Default

For me the rebooting would happen only when a game was running.
Even then it would go for ages until some video or high demand part of the game started.

In SH5 this could happen any time - normally about 30 to 60 mins in.

Mass Effect 2 gave real problems - every cut scene - reboot

Hope you get it fixed without hassle.

still on WIN XP here, not shure what WIN7 is doing by default if a so called "bluescreen" is comming up, but there must be also an option to halt the system to be able reading that "bluescreen" without doing an auto reset.

your system have also an eventlog, plz check it.

if you cant find any understanable information from that bluescreen (halted bluescreen) or eventlog entry(s), past them into google...

To All:

Monitor your card temperatures people!

I have mine running at all times and monitor it before/during/after playing games using RivaTuner graph chart.

Anything over 90c is cutting it close, and AFAIK hitting 90c will reboot the computer.

Good luck friends, protect your investment!
