Hey.. I gotta problem, when I'm playing Need For Speed Most Wanted (1.3 patch) my computer will randomly crash to windows while i'm playing. This is annoying as you can imagine coz i'll be in the middle of a race and it'll crash. I've had some other issues like freezing at the logon screen and during boot. It even failes to post occaisionally so i gotta reset. I have a lot of fans and lights in my PC too so does this suggest that my PSU ain't powerful enough? Or could it be the graphics card or what?
Here's my spec: AMD Athlon XP3200+ OCZ 1GB PC3200 DDR SDRAM Maxtor 250GB 16MB cache SATA HDD ATI Sapphire Radeon 9600 Pro 256MB 350Watt PSU
Or does it sound like it's simply a software issue? I don't want to have to reinstall because it will take ages.. What do you think?
