yea....anytime i play a certain game(put the computer under a lot of stress) it turns off ...and i have to shut off the PSU to restart it. The computer runs fine unless i want to play this game...anyone have any suggestions as to what is going on?

I've already changed the ram and vid card, and it's still happening.


It's an A64, 3200+, 1gig of ram atm, 1 40GB hard drive atm
 
I remember when I was using this generic power supply with my upgraded computer...whenever I tried to play half-life and make a server, or even connect to a game, the pc would go and restart on me. Best thing to do is if you have an extra power supply, go and set that in there and give it a try. Or you could check the voltages on it to see if they're within accepted limits.
