I play games like CS:Source and after a while I get a blue screen and it restarts.
When playing BattleField 2, it loads and then shuts off the game on its own. Anybody know why? I also get random system shutdowns. Somebody tell me whats wrong. BTW I'm using the new NeoHE 500watt. I've contacted Antec about this problem and how the older versions may not work with nForce 4 boards. I am still awaiting their response.

RIG:
Dual AMD Opteron 165 1800MHz
Motherboard: Asus A8N-E
Memory: 1024 MB of OCZ PC3200 DDR400
Video Card: eVGA 7800GT nVidia GeForce
Hard Drive: Seagate 7200.9 SATAII 120.0 GB @ 7200 RPMS
Storage Interface: SATA
Sound Card: Integrated
Operating System: Windows XP Professional Corporate
 
I would say prabally bad ram.

I assume thats 512x2? take out one stick and see if it still happens, if it doesn't then take that out out and put in the one you took out first. My guess is that its RAM and it'll work with just one of them, but not the other.

Also if that doesn't work, try running something very RAM intensive for a long time but NOT VRAM intensive and see if it happens, unless you have another video crd to swap and see if it still happens. V RAM can go bad too.
 
I'm about to run memtest with both sticks in. I got the bluescreen saying something abotu NTFS.sys being corrupt along with something that had to do with my ram, I forgot to take it down but if it comes up again I'll post.
