When I play any game for the last week and a half my computer Keeps restarting then freezing on reboot while repeating the last sound the game made. If i play a game such as operation flashpoint or R.U.S.E it takes minutes befor it happens. If i play Hidden or garrysmod it can last up to an hour. It has not done this before and i can not find any help on other sites. I have defragged My PC, freed up godly amount of space. cleaned the inside of my PC, updating my drivers and other daft little things to see if they makes a diffrence. I havent got much of a clue about Computers i do Electrical Engineering [U][B]NOT[/B][/U] computing so if you know how to solve this can you please explain how to do so in a simple non technical way in witch i could understand. Thanks in advance
My computer specs if you need them?

Any other info needed that would help I would be happy to give.
Your computer is likely overheating, the 8800 series has been known to overheat but I do not know if the 9800 is also likely to overheat, Find temperatures on your computer using a monitoring program.
Has this happened recently? If so, do a Spyware scan. You might have the same Trojan that was fucking up my computer from booting normally.

I cheacked using AVG and SuperAntiSpyware both full scans. Only got Tracking cookies like I get every week when i scan so i dont think it would be a Trojan unless they carnt detect it.

Ha ha no.
Hwmonitor, Google it.
Speed fan is the worst temperature program out there.
Riva tuner is fine but also an overclocking program and only shows the temps for the card, Rivatuner also hasn't been updated to work with the new drivers.
Blahhh! I give in. I am just going to take it to the computer shop up the road, they can sort it out foe me because i can not be ared :D
