random resetting

[Peter]

Hi,

Accumulated heat inside the chassis may be the problem.
Try open the side plate of the chassis and play the games
again. If there is no restarting after a prolonged
playing, heat is the culprit. Try install more tower fans
to improve air ventilation inside the chassis.
Clean the fans of the CPU, GPU, and heatsinks by a can of
compressed air may be helpful. Also clean the
ventilations fans, powerpack fans and their outlets to
ensure no blocking of airflow.

Hope it helps.

Peter

Are you showing any SaveDump events in the event logs? Curious if the
machine might be blue screening as well.

I get no blue screen , its as if someone just pushes the
reset button , but it only happens when im gaiming ,
every time i play . although it has happend while im on
my desktop but only once . the tempreture is no higher
than normal. one thing i can add is that a couple of
times when its reset the computer just hangs and the
monitor goes into standby like when the computer is
off... man this is realy getting to me :(
