My computer is rebooting when I am playing games. No one particular game is causing the problem. Cleaned everything thoroughly, updated video card driver. Thanks for the help though.

How do I try a memory test? A memory test on the video card itself?

Also, consider CPU temp (Motherboard Monitor) or inadequate PSU.

BadBoy..I haven't a clue of how to run memory test. I read the FAQ and this is way beyond my knowledge level. I couldnt even begin to figure out what to download from that site.
CPU temp is in the 110 to 120 F range.
PSU is my next step. I have an older PSU available and will try that out tomorrow. This problem im having started quite suddenly.
Many thanks for the help. Got to look into that memory test more tomorrow also.
