Been having this problem on and off lately. Computer will lose power in games and will not restart unless I disconnect the power cable from the back and reconnect it. If I reconnect the cable and start it up immediately it will lose power in the game even quicker. Sometimes it doesnt happen at all. Thinking it might be the power supply.

I have a abit nf7 motherboard, xp 3200, BFG 6800 vanilla, Turbolink LCA350ATX power supply. a gig of mushkin 3200.
 
check your RAM stabiltiy too. I thought my PSU was casuing it a while back cause it was a peice of crap cheap one and it was my ram....
now i ended up with better RAM and PSU so I'm happy.

Do a Prime95 torture test on it for liek 3 or 4 hours if the PSU doesn't fix it. You can always use a bigger PSU for future upgrades.
