Armin Prljaca 1081671 Posted January 17, 2011 at 10:12 PM Posted January 17, 2011 at 10:12 PM Hi people. Some problems again... When I run FSX and after some 5-10 mins my comp simply restarts like somebody turned off the electricity. I have Quad Core processor Q8200 at 2.33GHz, Nvidia 9500GT, 4GB of RAM, Win7 ultimate 64 bit. Any help? Thanks in advance Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Luke Kolin Posted January 17, 2011 at 11:09 PM Posted January 17, 2011 at 11:09 PM And I downloaded this app what should I do with it? If you install/run it, it will give you temperatures for your CPU and GPU.... It's a pretty valuable tool for tracking temperatures rather than guessing. nVidia Inspector can also give you GPU temperatures - it also lets you control the fan speed. I've noticed that when the GPU fan is set to "Auto", it won't go above 40% until my GPU temp gets into the 80s. When I fire up FS, I go into nVidia Inspector and crank up the fan to 50-80% so that my GPU temps don't get over 65C. I don't think it makes much of a difference, but it makes me feel better. Cheers!

What problem are you having? Does it only occur with FSX, or all the time? Cheers! Luke ... I spawn hundreds of children a day. They are daemons because they are easier to kill.
