Back up.
Format.
Reinstall.

Also known as BFR. I make tons of money doing this....

yea well i've reformatted before like 5 times and it stilld does it. Is there nething else that could cause this, when Deus Ex starts, it works untill i hit enter, esc, or click the mouse button to get the menu up.

ok now it does it when i play Chronicles of Rid**** which used to work before, u think i have to reformat again?

 

[meefle]

Well i just reformatted and it still crashes when i play Deus Ex. i havent tried Rid**** or Limewire. Could it be my HD or what thats makin it crash? I put artic silver 5 on the CPU and it runs at 42C and at around 46-48C with a full load.

POWER SUPPLY is BAD.
