Solve : Help Please: My brand new PC restarts without warning?

Answer»

Please help me. I bought a new PC with Intel Core 2 E6420 2.13 GHz Processor and Intel 946-GZ motherboard, RAM 667MHz 2x1GB, And PCI-E ATI Sapphire X550 128MB Graphics Card. (O/S Windows XP SP-2). I tried to play Rise of the Nations: Thrones and Patriot, Sims 2: Nightlife, and Resident EVIL 4 in it. The games start fine, but as the play progresses, some problems arise. Either, the game will stop, and Windows will say that it is generating 'a list of exceptions' and then the infamous error reporting dialogue box. Or the COMPUTER will simply restart without any warning. After restarting, a Message box appears that the Windows has recovered from a serious error. This happens only in complex situations, I.E, at rise of the nations, this happens at the peak of a battle, etc.

Can any one please help me?Did you buy it assembled from a dealer, because that's what I understand from "bought a new PC", or did you actually buy a bunch of parts and put them together yourself? The difference is IMPORTANT, because if you bought the PC complete, you should be contacting the supplier under WARRANTY, and messing about inside, especially if you don't know what you're doing, is going to be a bad idea.

You do not say what kind of PSU the PC has. I would be looking at PSU, motherboard, RAM, CPU overheating, in fact a whole lot of things.

I would be taking advantage of the warranty...trying to fix it yourself may void the warranty.he "still wants to know what's wrong". OK, RollingEE, it's your gizmoid oscillator. It needs retuning. Can't be done at home. Needs a $50,000 rig to do it properly. Claim on the warranty.

Best to bring it back to your supplier or manufacturer and have the game played there so they will understand what's wrong with your pc. From the way i see it, it might be memory problem. Quote from: superman777 on June 03, 2007, 11:04:37 PM
