i was playing need for speed most wanted yesterday, and suddenly, the screen just goes black, then the LED on the monitor goes from green to orange - no signal. i press the restart button, and everthing boots up fine, i try to go back into the game, but the same thing happens, while in the menu, before i even started playing. its done the same thing 4 times now. i have scanned for spyware/viruses, reinstalled nvidia drivers, im using 81.85 right now. i guess i can try 81.95, but, i dont really think thats the problem. i also, reinstalled my chipset drivers. im priming now, and then im gonna try memtest. i just dont know what could have happened. specs are in sig.
UPDATE:
1. no viruses (at least not according to Kaspersy)
2. no spyware, scanned with spysweeper, adaware, spybot
3. S&M stable fore 16 hours, prime stable for 12
4. memtest stable for 14 hours
5. temperatures are fine
6. problem occurs with: Need for Speed Most Wanted, FEAR, Half Life 2, Aquamark 3
7. Doesnt happen with Age of Empires 3. Why????????????????????
8. overclock is back at stock, still stable with all torture tests
9. it occurs at the same point in each game, even if i let the videos at the beginning play through, it happens at the same point.
10. it must be crashing when some process opens or initializes or something, i dont really know anything about this kind of thing
please help me...... must play games......ahhhhhh......
