Howdy,

My rig has taken to turning itself off and I have no idea why. It's an E6700 dual-core/2GB RAM/8800GTS 640 MB video in a very well ventillated Antec 900 case.

The only time it turns itself off is if I'm playing a game. I can leave it on for days and all is fine, watch movies, download, burn CDs, anything, but if I so much as play a game of Risk - I like Risk -guaran-friggin'-teed the machine will shut down after ten or fifteen minutes.

I have AVG 8.5 running every day as well as the new free Ad-Aware and I use the Clean Cache program every week or two.

If it's overheating, wouldn't other things shut it down besides a ten-year old game of Risk that can run on my toaster and probably uses 1MB of video memory?

Thanks.
