AMD 2800 Thermals

[skipshot4]

What is the range of safe temperatures for an AMD Athalon 64-bit 2800? I'm having games crash and when I check the log I have 49-50C. Should I be worried?

I'd say that's an average load temp for that CPU. I can't see it causing problems.

Can you log your PSU rails - perhaps the PSU can't handle your components. List your system specs...it will help us diagnose your problem.

OK it's your choice:
You can have the boat, or you can have the Mystery Box!
...Hey wait a minute! A boat's a boat, but a Mystery Box could be anything. It could even be a boat

Try reloading your chipset drivers, from the cd that came with the mobo. Then reload your graphics card driver, then directx.
