Menace89 Posted January 1, 2008 Report Share Posted January 1, 2008 Everytime I start playing counter strike, my comp just shuts off after about 20 min. My friend thought it was the power supply cuz I had a 350watt PSU so I went out and bought a 700 watt PSU....but it still does it. It only does it when I play counter strike. Any suggestions?

audiofanaticz Posted January 1, 2008 Report Share Posted January 1, 2008 What accordman said or Your computer is over heating.. Check your heatsink on your processor and videocard and make sure there is no dust in it and the fans are moving freely Also make sure your up to date with your video drivers and direct x settings. Although if you only play 1.6 it should be to hard on your computer compaired to cs:s performance wise. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Torres Posted January 1, 2008 Report Share Posted January 1, 2008 yeah i think it'd be either memory problem or overheating Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slinky Posted January 1, 2008 Report Share Posted January 1, 2008 unless it does it on other games too its not overheating. its prolly a driver error or something along those lines. my laptop freezes up only on one game and thats bf2142. i have played prolly 30 different games on this thing and it only does it on that game. i personally think its a video card prob.

audiofanaticz Posted January 1, 2008 Report Share Posted January 1, 2008 Some games do not need as much processing power and graphics as others. My pc use to bsod all the time with WoW, and no other games, I gave my case a good cleaning and problem was solved. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slinky Posted January 1, 2008 Report Share Posted January 1, 2008 exactly. and the valve engine requires very little hardware power.

audiofanaticz Posted January 1, 2008 Report Share Posted January 1, 2008 exactly. and the valve engine requires very little hardware power. depending on which game you play, which is why i asked which cs he played. 1.6 is going to take the least while csz will take a bit more and css taking a lot more.
