Hey guys, I havent posted here in a long while. Was thinking maybe one of you computer wizzes could help me with a problem. As of recent after 30-60 mins of playing TFC, my comp locks up and shuts off. It dosen't do it while sitting on the desktop or playing another game. Could it be steam? I tried reinstalling. Didn't help too much 
Thanks - Mort |

Are any of the other games you play as graphics intensive?
The problem might be that one of the components of your machine overheats when you play graphics intensive games. |

you got me pal, i'm one of those noobs who just reformats when somehting goes wrong, got into the habit of making a ghost of my hd once in a while, works well for me  .
you probably don't want to reformat, and you already reintalled steam,.......does the same happen when your play halflife or CS???? |

I knew it.
People have stuff like that happen all the time.
They always freak out too.
There's someone that actually had something where the computer turned itself on or soemthing.
Creepy! |
