ok so here is what happened..
i am playing counter strike source
all of the sudden, my comp freezes, and a sound keeps looping and my monitor light is flashing on and off.
i try to turn it off, and it is not turning off.
i switch off the PSU.
try and start back up again, but the whole screen is a rainbow-ish color at the windows login screen but when i roll my mouse over where my login name is, i can log in. i still cannot read any text though, it is all multicolored.
i restart and try to get on again. doesnt work, same ****.
so i reinstall windows, everything goes well. i get it booted up for the first time, install drivers.
then i restart and it has the windows screen with the black background, it makes it through that.
then it goes to a blue gradient screen, and stays on that, sometimes flashing black then back to it.
-----------------------------
In need of a diagnosis.
Thanks
