When I was playing Far Cry, my computer just restarted on its own. It has happened I think three times now. I have a guess what might cause this which is my computer getting too hot and maybe my computer has some protection thing that if it gets too hot, it restarts? or can a computer do that? If you know exactly what is wrong, please tell me.
Probably overheating. Best thing to do is move your fridge to where the computer is, then put the computer inside the fridge, making sure you used moisture absorption products for a few days beforehand.
wtf? are u being serious about the fridge thing? if so i really dont think i should do that and i dont want to risk my computer being messed up, if u are kidding plz tell me something else i can do
what is IT? but nevermind i am pretty sure what is causing it and it's not really overheat, it's just that on my easytune overclock thing the temperature threshold is at 60 and i guess when it gets to that level it restarts the computer but i was wondering if my computer just restarts in the middle of the game, do u think it might do anything to my computer like lose some saved stuff like a lot of warnings say or is it ok for the computer just to restart in the middle of a game?
Oh sorry for the two caps, held shift too long. If you read your computer manual i believe that is it. It is, I am guessing, ok for it to quit in the middle of the game if you dont want that game saved.
which computer manual? like of what part of the computer? there is no manual over the whole thing because my computer was made from different parts that i just bought, but my game automatically restarts, i was wondering if anything else might happen to the computer AT ALL if it just restarts automatically in the middle of something
Well, I would go have it looked by a computer technician though. Didn't know you made it yourself. Mine has a manual for certain things because I got it out of the Dell catalog 4 years ago, and it still works fine.
Wtf, how do you expect anyone to help you? Should we telepathically figure out what all your pc specs are and diagnose? TELL US YOUR PC SPECS OR NO HELP FOR YOU! By that I mean motherboard model names and every other component in your pc, it should be simple since you built it yourself. And yes most motherboards are coming out with auto shut-off features so it doesn't melt.
i thought i just said i figured out what was wrong? all i wanted to know now is can anything bad or something happen to your computer when you restart like in a middle of a game?, wow, you dont always need computer specs just to help someone on their computer
Yes you do... since all you have said is it restarts for no reason. You haven't even told us what Windows version you're running. There are a million things that could restart your pc. You can get disk errors on your harddrive, I'm not exactly sure, but it's not healthy for it.
