Solve : PC Lockup (cliche, I know)?

Answer»

i have 2 nvidia 8600's running in SLI format, out of the BLUE, whenever i started ALT tabbing, the screens would turn black completely. (or the color of whatever app was running). My question to you is this: what COULD cause SLI to LOCKUP my COMPUTER? Both the drivers are up to date. And as stated before, my computer wasnt doing this before, it just "started happening"
Processer - Intel core 2 CPU 6420 (2.13 GHz each core)
RAM - 2 GB Corsair 667 mhz
Graphics - 2 Nvidia 8600 GT's running in SLI format (256 mb DDR 3)
MoBo -Nforce 570 SLIT-A
HDD - 1 - 80 GB 7200 RPM, one 320 GB, 7200 rpm// Both seagates

you tried to not run SLI?

this problem can be due to a bad connection. or that one of the 8600 are burned out and just wondering ... what power supply you got in that machine? (would like to know manutacturer, model, wattage and 12V rail(s) amp rating(s)....
