Hey can someone help me fix my problem? I just built this system of the holidays and recently there has been a problem. I was playing call of duty and then after starting the 3rd level my computer exit me to windows but it was frozen so i restart but the video never came up and it gave me a beep code that according to this website i found meant that it was a video problem. The next day my computer worked fine but i didn't play a game so i am thinking my video card is overheating when i play a game. The specs of my system are: amd athlon 64 x2 5600+, 2 gb of ram, asus sli motherboard, nvidia geforce 8600 gt with 512 mb ram, windows xp pro recently had windows vista. Does anyone have any idea of what might be wrong. If so please respond. Thanks
Doug
 
Take out one stick of memory at a time, also try using onboard video.

GFX failure may not be common, but it happens... Why did my FX5200 die on the easiest game ever?
