Yeah thats what the
“The system has rebooted without cleanly shutting down first. This error could be caused if the system stopped responding, crashed, or lost power unexpectedly.”
Right, noticed something even more strange. Not only does it only happen in GW2. But iv noticed only in LA. It has happened few other places, like the fire ele boss and the shatterer. But never happened in WvW running around in huge zergs….grr
As for event logs all it says is things like
“The previous system shutdown at 22:09:42 on ?20/?04/?2013 was unexpected.”
“The system has rebooted without cleanly shutting down first. This error could be caused if the system stopped responding, crashed, or lost power unexpectedly.”
Believe iv solved it. Seems having the drivers up to date was a bad idea.
Rolled back my GPU to an older driver. Seems the latest 314.22 driver caused it to do this
EDIT: Spoke to soon, as soon as i posted this, reboot
Think you may be right in this, just played planetside 2 for a good couple of hours and no restarts. Will be testing it out on Assassins creed 3 later too
Hi, as the title says, Iv got an issue with my new pc rebooting randomly.
I know its not over heating, iv been motioning the temps.
It is overclocked, but i haven’t set it to overclock since I built it.
Im getting no BSOD when it reboots.
It only does this when gaming, such as GW2.
Am i right in guessing this is a PSU problem e.g i need a new one. This was the only thing i didnt upgrade since it was a 850w, but it is about 5+ years old.
Heres my specs:
- CPU: Intel Core i5 3570K 3.40GHz @ 4.50GHz Quad Core CPU
- Motherboard: Asus P8Z77-V LX2 (Socket 1155) DDR3 Motherboard
- RAM: Patriot Intel Extreme Masters 8GB DDR3 1600MHz Dual Channel
- Cooler: Prolimatech Megahalems CPU Cooler – Black w/x2 120MM Zaward Golf III Fans
-GPU: EVGA GeForce GTX 660 Superclocked 2048MB GDDR5
-PSU alpha power ATX-850
Its all a fresh install with windows + gw2 on my new SSD and other bits on my 1TB HD
