Hello ppl:
I'm having problems with my rig, My PC will shut down when I watch any online video like in youtube or any other site for that matter. I tested RAM using the memory tester that comes with the OS and it indicated no issues, I then updated my video card drivers, still have the issue, downloaded the omega drivers which I've used before to solve video card driver issues, still have the issue, updated then my BIOS to its latest version, I still have the issue. So I decided to format the machine and reinstall OS again and after reinstalling OS I installed all updates from Win Update, and tested... still same issue, I then use Driver Genius Pro 2008, update the app, used it to scan my drivers, downloaded all drivers that need to be updated (none which were video), installed them, tested... same issue. I can do anything else without the machine shutting down. Asides for what I've done is there anything else to do??? Below a synopsis with system specs. Many thanx in advanced :D.
Problem: PC shuts down while watching any video on any website using IE7, Firefox and Safari.
It will run DVD movies, play Video games and play movies stored in the hard drive without shutting down.
Steps taken already: tested RAM, BIOS update, driver update, flash player update, reformatting PC, installing all updates first, then installing flash player.
Waiting for: friend with another Video card (8800GT) to discard of prove bad Video Card theory
