My computer LOCKS UP

[Guest]

I thought my computer was locking up do to heat problems, but lately i have seen lock ups at 46c. At first my computer locked up when it passed 50c and over but lately it will lock up in the 40's. I have a cheap heatsink (coolermaster) so I don't know if that is to blame. I sometimes get blue-screen errors also when I play some Diablo2. Is there any way to run a test to see what is locking up my computer?

if you could give some more info on your system, that would help.

my guess would be that you need to update some drivers, maybe for vid card.....
40-50 isn't bad for temps...so it shouldn't be a heat prob....

although I would spring for a better hsf anyway...

heres just a guess but too many people dont get the propr power supply and that will in some cases make the computer reboot on random. I dont know what you have in your system but if you have many different cards and drives and a 250W power supply you might want to upgrade that to 300W.
