Hey guys, I am sorry if this is posted elsewhere, i looked and could not find an answer.
When I am playing games, currently KOTOR II. my computer shuts down completely. The only way to get it to come back on is to unplug the power supply for a few seconds and plug it back up. When i am not running high end games the system runs fine. I tried removing the side panel and hooking using a box fan to cool, same result, possibly had a little more gameplay time but not much. i am thinking that this is possibly a power supply problem, it does the same thing when playing America's Army or flight simulator. If anyone has any suggestions or a way to load test the power supply it would be greatly appreciated.
