Re: Pc resets playing games

Hi gavwmac and welcome to TSF,

Please download and install Everest from my sig, this is a very usefull tool.
Once installed load Everest and using the menu on the left navigate to Computer > Senors. This will bring up the temperatures. I suspect that the beeps is temp warning before your PC switches off. I think your CPU is overheating.

when you run convertX again look in everest and check your CPU temp. Can you please post what you find.
