Comment:

I play Counter-Strike and after I finish playing for an hour or so, I quit the game and it starts to go back to windows and just shuts off completely. I then have to get my power plug that goes into the mobo and unplug and then plug back in to jump start my computer the next time I want to bring my computer back up. Would this be a power supply issue?

Thanks in advance,
Jason
