My computer shuts down when i play games!

09tomlin · 09-22-2007, 02:07 PM

Hi there!

After a while of playing (about 1 minute) the screen shows a "no signal input" message. My guess is that is has something to do with the graphics card. I know its not because of overheating (the load temperature reaches a max of 60/140 degrees celsius/fahrenheit. I have downloaded the latest drivers. If I look in the computer log it shows the following message: Error code 10000050, parameter1 ffd1558b, parameter2 00000000, parameter3 f739adeb, parameter4 00000000. When I restart the computer after the crash it says: "Windows has been restored after a serious problem" or similar to that.

I've tried the most things i came to think of: Reinstalled Windows, drivers to the graphics card, cleared the cmos, updated BIOS, it's not overheating, the power supply isn't to weak and probably something more.

Any ideas what might be wrong and how to solve it?

By the way, it's a Sapphire Radeon x1950 pro 256 mb graphics card.

Oh and one more thing worth writing is that I've recently changed computer chassis and the graphics cooler. Could something have happened while i was moving all the components to the new chassis? (I've been very carefull with static electrisity)

This is my PSU. I have had the computer like 9 months or so and it has worked perfectly until now.

Are you overclocking the card or any other computer component?

09tomlin · 09-22-2007, 03:41 PM

Nope, everything is exactly as it was before i changed chassis.

This exact thing happened to me when I had an old Radeon 9800. So old that the fan wasn't working. I would try to start up World of Warcraft and then *boom!* black screen.

Except my problem was that it was overheating.

I know you say that it's not overheating, but I think something probably messed up when you changed your graphics cooler.

Okey, but does anyone know what this error code means (10000050, parameter1 ffd1558b, parameter2 00000000, parameter3 f739adeb, parameter4 00000000)?

Doesn't this code tells you whats wrong? Have searched around the internet but found nothing about it. Shouldn't Microsoft have some kind of list with all the error codes and how to solve them, after all they're the ones who has programed windows.

After some reading I've found out that it might be the voltregulators that's getting overheated. Is there some special cooler for the voltregulators?

Where on the card can i find them/what do they look like?
