My computer keeps crashing during operations like burning Cd's/DVD's and playing certain games. It simply shuts itself off. Sometimes my computer will stay on, but I won't be able to open any applications and the start menu is completely blank of programs. A lot of the time, my computer sounds like the fans are having issues, but I have plenty of them and they are working properly.
When my computer shuts down after playing a game, XP says on the restart something about "threads" being stuck? Maybe a video card issue? XP doesn't recognize a problem when it shuts down after trying to burn a DVD/CD.
What is my issue here? Please help!
This is my computer's specs:
Windows XP - SP2
Pentium 4 3.00ghz
1 gb RAM
200gb HDD - (2 seperate)
RADEON X300/X550 Series
Xtreme Sound PCI Sound Card
Running a wireless card
