OT: System Crashed !

[iano]

Hi folks. My system crashed while Street Fighter 2 was running in demo . I was in another room when it happened (i heard Ken repeating his dragon punch sample). I don't think it's a GameEX issue - more of an xp/hardware issue. Is there some kind of error/event log in xp so that i can find out what happened ?

Thanks in advance,

iano.

Yeah, your spot on the diagnosis, but unfortunatly these kind of problems are hard to diagnose. I get this on one of my systems thats on 24/7 every 10 days or so it will blue screen for a split second and reboot. I think its more hardware or drivers related than anything, and other than replace each peace of kit 1 by 1 save the fatigue mate. You could look in the event log but I doubt yourll see anything

Hi Tom. At least i'm not the only one this happens to. If it only happens once in a while & doesn't mess anything else up then i guess i can live with it !
