Hi ppl,
I have this peculiar problem with a system which my cousin has. We can't seem to run any game for long and it crashes or either won't start up.
System specs are almost the same:-
intel 3.0ghz
ram 512 kingston (he has hynix)
80 gb hard drive
intel mobo 915gav

What do you think could be the problem. We have updated the mobo and graphics drivers as well..........On my system the games seem to run fine. So what is the solution please HELP!!!

Your first suspect should be the power supply. I suggest using your own PSU to feed your cousin's computer and see what happens.

You mean that i should interchange and see if there is an affect. But wont a faulty psu stop other normal operations of a computer also??
