Well here goes i dont know if i am in the right spot but if not let me know.

I have a little problem that i need to fix. When I am playing BF2 on my pc I will be online enjoying my game and then about 20-30 minute into the game my computer will just re-boot for no reason.

I am in the process of ordering a new Vid card and PSU, but I have never had this problem till about a month ago when I installed a New HDD of the same type and brand just more space.

Any help would be nice. Thanks

Turn off the auto restart function:

How to turn off Auto Restart in XP

Right click on My Computer

Select Properties

Select the Advanced tab then the Startup & Recovery section

Select the Settings button

Uncheck "Automatically restart" and then click Apply


This will give you a Blue Screen with the error message rather than restarting the computer.

Write down the error detail then use the reset button on the computer to restart.

Post back the error message verbatim.

Okay well I did the following that was mentiond above but now I have a new little problem.

My mouse and keyboard will not work once i am in game. it will work to the point where i have to hose my load out

Well it did it again but gave me no error message. The internal temp was 80.7 degrees. what would be the next step in this

80 C ?

On the CPU?

no 80.7Degrees F no C and it is the internal temp of the computer. I just dont get it. I can do everything else on my computer with no problems it just comes to this one programm and have re-enstalled it and i still get the same problem.

Get this now. Last night I was playing the new Company of Heros and I did not have one problem. Go figure.

Do you still have problems with the other game?

Yes I am still having the problem with the other game. Tonight 9/28 @ 103am it did it again, where my machine just reset itself. Temp was 80.9 degrees F

Well it happend again with BF2. Temp was 81.5 degrees F and I had played for about 15min.
