    My PC crashes only when I play


    My brother built me a PC a couple years ago and I have never been able to play on it. I use it almost daily for work usually just on Google and Excel without any issues but when I try to play ex. Call of Duty, Elden Ring, and God of War it crashes after a certain amount of time. It crashes the fastest with Call of Duty. The crashes would consist of my screen freezing and I would be unable to do anything except click the power on/off button. Although when I run the game on safe mode on Steam it crashes to the desktop. I don't know much about fixing PCs so any help you can offer would be hig

    :)

    all games crash!

    I suggest you run rthdribl > http://www.daionet.gr.jp/~masa/archives/rthdribl_1_2.zip
    Increase the window size step by step and watch your vga temps permanently.
    What happens?
    If it crashes, run at stock speeds as suggested before and retry.

    P.S.: When your system locks, does the display signal turn off after a time?
    Stuttering sound or no sound at all when freezing?
    What X1800XT model do you own exactly?

    My PC crashes only when I play

    all games crash!

    ive watch my temps and both the cpu and gpu are within normal ranges. when it freezes it simply freezes the image and stops the sound. i must reboot to get back to windows.
