Hi everyone, I am having the very annoying issue with my computer. It only seems to occur while playing games. The computer freezes all of a sudden. The screen freeze's and I can't control anything. There is also a buzzing sound when the computer freezes. I went into 'Event Viewer' and found the critical error. These are the details: - System - Provider [ Name] Microsoft-Windows-Kernel-Power [ Guid] {331C3B3A-2005-44C2-AC5E-77220C37D6B4} EventID 41 Version 2 Level 1 Task 63 Opcode 0 Keywords 0x8000000000000002 - TimeCreated [ SystemTime] 2012-07-31T08:13:09.789625100Z EventRecordID 205049 Correlation - Execution [ ProcessID] 4 [ ThreadID] 8 Channel System Computer Tomi-PC - Security [ UserID] S-1-5-18 - EventData BugcheckCode 0 BugcheckParameter1 0x0 BugcheckParameter2 0x0 BugcheckParameter3 0x0 BugcheckParameter4 0x0 SleepInProgress false PowerButtonTimestamp 0 Please help. Thanks.
Is this a desktop or laptop ? this is normally an over heating error from the processor, If it is a desktop, open up the case and check the cpu fan, make sure it is still spinning when running..
This is a desktop. The CPU temperature is fine. On idle, it says around 37*C. When playing games, it goes up to about 55*C. I cleaned out the computer with an air compressor yesterday and so far the computer hasn't frozen. Hopefully the dust is the cause and it shouldn't freeze again. I will wait a couple more days and see what happens.
