Hello all, just built me a new compy. I have an AMD Athlon 2200+
running at 1800 MHz. No name RAM that is pc2100 (512mb), a Sapphire
Radeon 9600 xt 256 mb RAM and an old 10 gig WD HDD. Also I'm running
an antec 400w power sup. I am having some problems with the compy
though, when I try to play a game (any game) it shuts down, and I have
to turn the master switch off until that little green light on the
mobo shuts off, then, and only then will the thing turn back on. It
runs fine at 1.49 GHz (50c, but that's besides the point). I'm sure
it's not cooling, because I've had and air conditioner right infront
of the thing and it's been idling around 46c. I'm running the vcore at
1.700 and the multiplier is 1.6 x 10. I HAVE NO IDEA WHY IT DOES THIS.
Could it be the RAM? The CPU is oem, could it be overated? Would a
defective hard drive do it? PLEASE SOMEONE I'M TORTURED HERE!
