ive been haveing a problem lately where my computer just randomly crashes in a sense,example i was just going through some forums and my mouse froze then skipped and my monitor lost signal as if my pc was turned off(if the cable is loose it has a vga icon)my system seems to still being running and harddrive activity and all just my video cuts out,and it doesnt happen particulary on anything intensive sometimes it randomly happens when its idleing but other times i can leave it on for days on end and it doesnt happen?im assuming my video card overheating or something

specs
amd 64 3000+ winchester stock hsf not overclocking
1gb mushkin pc3200 2-2-2-5 tccd ram
evga 6800gt not overclocked
msi neo2platnium
western digital 80gb harddrive
windows xp home
video drivers-forceware 77.30
 
no bioses were touched,since my motherboard didnt come with a bad revision and ive left my video card alone,only thing i ever flashed was my router so itd stop giving me out of order packets in CS:S

just happend again when i opened a new window in mozilla,when i went into the bios cpu temp read 42C,sys temp 33C,and my cpu fan spinning at 5600rpm(the furthest i can FORCE it is 3000rpm i dunno how it and when it spins its self so high)
 
damn i had core center open and i noticed under load my cpu was decideing to increase its own fsb,well of course when i tested it crashed well i went into ma bios and all auto overclocking setting are off,wtf?
 
Patience man, download and run Memtest86. Even though you have some fast RAM the timings might be too tight for it, or you aren't giving it enough voltage. Try increasing it's voltage or change the timings to 2-3-2-5 and see what happens.
 
ive narrowed it down to my cpu FSB fluctuateing under load and im currently underclocking it,so the question is how to stop the fsb from upping itself under %50+load
