Hello
If anyone can tell me why my computer restarts itself when im playing games (particully FlyFF) i would really appreciate it
Im getting so frustrated?!?!?!?!?!!?
If you can't handle waiting on it, then do it before you go to bed or before you leave and are going to be gone for quite a while.
I haven't done a checkdisk for a billion years, and I imagine on the size of hard drives these days, it could take A LONG TIME. But sometimes getting problems fixed takes some times and patience.
While it never hurts to run the system scan, I don't think this is your actual problem. Take the side off of your computer case and turn on your system. Check for any fans that aren't spinning up. If you see one that doesn't start to spin, chances are you are having overheat issues due to improper cooling. If your computer keeps running no problems while the computer case is off, even during the game, then you know for a fact your problem is heat related. You need to add more cooling capacity to your box.
You could, but for something this simple, you'd be wasting your money. Your computer most likely has a side panel that can unscrew and slide off. You aren't going to do anything to the components inside, just observe what happens. If you don't feel comfortable doing that, then any computer expert should be able to do it for you.
While I can't be sure that this is NOT an overheating issue, the fact that the system REBOOTS and not just SHUTs OFF tells me that it's most likely not overheating. The chkdsk scan is just the first step. Memory could be bad as well which would be my next step.
