    computer reboots when playing farcry and 3dmark

    hi all
    got an sn95g5 ere with a amd 64 3500
    club3d 6800 gt
    and some corsair ram,,
    now when i boot it up to play farcy, i get into the game and the game hangs up and reboots,
    the same thing happens when i run 3dmark 2001 - i click benchmark and it plays a few frames and reboots,
    ne ideas?

    Does look like your graphics card is either overheating badly, or it's b0rkd.
    Any one you know got one you can borrow to find out if that's the prob?

    Could also be that the power supply is suffering?
