• Monitor Shuts off Playing Games and than Crashes my Computer.

Like the title says. I'll be playing STALKER or GTA IV or any game like that. I can go thirty minutes, maybe an hour but eventually the screen will go black and it will say like. "ANALOG. POWER SAVE MODE." or something like that. The monitor will turn off and than I can hear through the speakers the computer crashed because it makes that irritating noise. From there I can only restart the computer. I have no idea why this is.
Computer overheating? Check temps while playing for a bit. Post them
I'm actually having the exact same problem, all of my temps are around 40-50C. I thought it might be the video card, but I've tried uninstalling, sweeping, then installing the newest AMD drivers (HD 5850).
Check your temps and see if they get high while playing, if not then it may be a driver crash which have a million causes.
Might be that your graphics card is going bad.
