I suppose here is as good as anywhere...
During the past 2 to 3 months, my computer will crash out of the game I'm playing, that isn't really that huge of a deal since I mostly play TF2 and games like it. However it's begun happening in every single game that I play, including strategy games such as Starcraft 2 and Leauge of Legends. It's also been getting worse as time goes on, now instead of crashing out of TF2 and the like, the computer just completely breaks and goes to the Blue Screen. It bugs me though, considering on some games, it doesn't ever happen.
From what I've looked up across the internet, this might be a RAM issue, but I figured it couldn't hurt to see if anyone here had any advice.

I've been playing more DotA 2 than TF2 recently, but that probably won't keep.

try debugging your computer, if that doesn't work add RAM or something and if that still doesn't work send it into the shop.

You could be overheating it. Check your temps while you're playing.

Mine used to overheat and shut down instantly, like the power went out. Over time it got less and less common, I still have no reason why. My computer never shuts down anymore.

Mine would not shut down instantly. The colors would mesh and mangle....THEN it would shut down after it couldn't take it anymore. It stopped later too, but only because the video card was completely shot.Tampashrew wrote:Mine used to overheat and shut down instantly, like the power went out.

Re: A recurring computer issue
mine overheated in a game of Civ IV
lagged horribly in everything from there on in and everything that was dark grey or black had red dots in it while everything light colored had blue dots in it.
