PC shutting down when loading a game

I went to play Farcry tonight and everything was well untill I went to load my last save spot. After the loading bar was full a blue screen came up saying..
A problem has been detected and windows has shut down. Run a system diagnostic utility supplied by your hardware manufacturer. In particular, run a memory check and check for faulty or mismatched memory. Try changing video adapters.
There was more but someone must have had this happen to them
I don't know what to do, memory seems fine, I even ran 3D Mark05s demo.
I have the following memory..
http://www.newegg.com/app/ViewProdu...-004&depa=1

Could be a number of things............
Software bugg ( game software or vga driver )
To low on 12v ( PSU ) to handle 6800 vga card and 3,0 cpu
to low voltage on memory ( you should at least be around 2.7v)
faulty memory ( run memtest86 )
to high CPU -/ VGA temp ( check with speedfan or other software )

Why does my Safari shut down when loading a page?

Why does my Safari shut down when I'm trying to load a page?

Is this for a Mac? You posted in the Beta for Windows section, you might want to try the Beta for Mac pages instead and see if anyone there know a good fix. Is this just with Adobe's PDF reader, or with Preview too? A workaround could simply be switching to a different reader, if you simply cannot find what causes the crashes. A clean reinstall might do the trick, if you haven't done so already.
If this is on Windows than I would recommend downloading the PDF plugin from http://www.apple.com/safari/download/plugins.html

Mail shuts down when loading incoming messages

Hello!
well, actually the title says it all. Since yesterday mail shuts itself down when it tries to load incoming messages.
The strange thing is: when I deactivate WLAN (and LAN) mail operates just fine. I can answer mails and when I switch on the internet access again it even sends the written emails. However as soon as it tries to load incoming messages it shuts down again. The loading bar loads till the end and then the Mb/s rate decreases till it reaches 0 Kb/s and then Mail shuts down.
What I have tried:
- restarted my Mac
- running the disk fixing program (I have no idea if that's the correct name for it in English since I operate my system in German) - btw it found nothing
- starting my Mac with pressed Shift
- deleting the com.apple.mail.plist (this didn't help at all)
- using a com.apple.mail.plist from my TM backup
I have absolutely no idea what else I could do. Does anyone have a clue?
Waht did I do to start this bug?
Nothing. That's the problem. I left my Mac running for a few hours while I was away and when I came back and wanted to look at my mails it shut down for the first time. I can't remember installing any updates before.
I have four mail server accounts in my mail. The strange thing is that just now a mail from Yahoo was able to arrive ...
I would be so glad if anyone could help me sort out this issue. I so desperatly need my mail program.
If you have any further questions don't hesitate to ask. I'll try to provide you with any information I can give you that could be of help.
Thank you for your time.

I have no idea what solved the problem but mail works just fine right now.
So I guess it was either the internet connection (which I still doubt as I was able to send messages) or it was the server of my mail provider.

ITunes Shuts Down when Loading Videos

I have a 120 gig iPod Classic, and just recently I started having problems with it. Now whenever I try to load a movie from iTunes to my iPod, iTunes shuts down right when the video is almost done loading onto my iPod. I have no problems with music, or even when I load videos from another computer. Does anyone know how to fix this?

Are you trying to sync them from the photos tab?
If so, try importing the videos into itunes and then syncing them from the movies tab.
You'll also want to uncheck 'Sync Videos' in the photos tab.

Itunes shuts down when loading music to ipod Touch

I just bought a new PC running Windows 7. Everything is set up correctly in iTunes. When I first synced the iPod Touch it loaded about a third of my music before I got an error message saying iTunes had stopped working and needed to shut down. Now, as soon as it tries to load the music, iTunes stops working again and I have to shut it down. It's always at the point where iTunes attempts to load the music (not at the start of the sync process).

I've solved it. I was using a 3rd party USB cable, which wasn't playing nicely with the iPod. As soon as I used the proper cable it worked perfectly. Apologies to Apple and shame on you Logic3 for making crappy cables!

Imac shuts down when loading new music or new software

My Imac shuts down (intermittently) when loading music or software. Logic board was replaced I believe because fire wire connection was intermittently not working (1st year).
Hard drive was replaced recently (Dec 2010). Now SuperDrive and Cable (Optical Data, Flexible) was JUST replaced. But when I was on my third CD loading it shut down 3 times.
Has anyone had this problem and know of a solution?
Works fine otherwise
Apple Store has run software on it and everything seems to pass.
It seems to shut down less when firewire is disconnected (back up hard drive LaCie) but still occasionally shuts down.

I have plugged my computer in three different places over the years and have had the same problem. I have also brought the power cord with computer for work and I am assuming they would have picked that up when they run their tests on the computer.
Could it be the keyboard (never brought in) or WiFi connection (don't think they would plug in anything)? A combination of this with load software/music?
Thing is the computer works perfectly otherwise. It is only does this when loading software or music from a cd/dvd.

Skype shuts down when loading on Panasonic TV

Skype on Panasonic TV problems Installed Logitech TV Cam V-U0022 to my Panasonic TC-P50VT25 according to manufactures recommendations and instructions. Worked great for five days as I would Skype with my son 2000 miles away. Unfortunately, now when Skype attempts to load and gets to the main Skpye screen it shuts down and returns to the VieraCast homescreen. All other Apps work fine. Called Logitech and with my laptop computer they cleared the camera as not part of the problem but suggested it was a Panasonic firmware issue. Called Panasonic tech, they never heard of the problem and resolved to turn it over to their "firmware tech people". I don't know if I will ever hear back from them! I see on Skypes' Support Network that this problem has happened to others. Any suggestions to help with this problem?

I am having same problem with same TV.

Laptop keeps shutting down when rendering 3D games

My laptop continues to shut down after about 5-15 minutes of playing 3D games, like Borderlands 2 and Half Life. The only exception to this is Minecraft (Only with the AtLauncher) and Portal 2. I have no clue why these games run correctly, considering that any other Java game won't stay on, and same for Source games. I have a Satellite C875-S7303. I know that it's an overheating problem, but I just want to know some ways I can fix/help this without opening the laptop. Also:This laptop is only 8 months old, it hasn't been dropped or cracked at all.

Hi If your going to play high end games, you are going to have to pay more than the 6 hundred dollars you paid for your machine. If it continues to get hot and shut down, you will be shopping for a gaming machine real soon. I would suggest a desk top next time if you want to be a gamer.Dokie!!PS Google Best Gaming Lap Tops.

Sounds like a couple different problems.
1. Corrupted O/S
2. System overheating from vents being blocked.
3. Bad GPU aka video card failure
If 3 that requires board replacement

TS1702 Since I updated to ios6 my City of Warfare game shuts down when I try to go to battle. I removed my original game app and reinstalled a new game, which I had to start from the beginning and it still crashes. I'm sure that others are having similar

Use the trackpad to scroll, thats what it was designed for. The scroll bars automatically disappear when not being used and will appear if you scroll up or down using the trackpad.
This is a user-to-user forum and most people will post on here if they have problems. You very rarely get people posting to say there update went smooth. The fact is the vast majority of Mountain Lion users will not be experiencing any major problems with the OS, or maybe with apps which are not compatible, but thats hardly Apple's fault if developers don't update their apps.

Computer shuts down when I click on the list or grid display button

I've uninstalled an reinstalled 3 times and instead of the computer shutting down when I start itunes as it was doing, it only does it when I click on the display as a list, grid or cover display button. However it seems to unistall some parts at the same time as I can't open it all afterwards (error message says its not installed). This started to occur after a couple of weeks of non use and when I last used it I purchased songs from itunes. I now have current version but didn't when it first statred to happen. Help!!

Okay ... we'd better have a closer look at the minidumps the PC has been producing to see if they can turn up any additional information on what we're dealling with here.
Open "My Computer", and see if you can find a directory called C:\Windows\Minidump. (That's where minidumps usually go on a PC, so long as the Systemroot hasn't been set to some other folder.)
If it's been collecting minidumps, there should be files in there with names like "Mini(number-numbers).dmp"
(If you have "Hide filename extensions for known file types" enabled in Windows, the ".dmp" extension may not appear on the dump files. The numbers in the file name will be different for each minidump, if minidumps are present.)
Once we've tracked down some minidumps, we can have a go at analysing them.
1. Download and install the Windows debugging tools from here:
http://www.microsoft.com/whdc/devtools/debugging/installx86.mspx
2. Go to Start, All Programs, Debugging Tools For Windows, Windbg
Once you open Windbg, you will presented with a blank screen.
3. Click on "File > Symbol File Path". Here you will enter the symbols
path. Symbols are needed to effectively debug.
The path will be:
SRVc:symbolshttp://msdl.microsoft.com/download/symbols
4. Enter in this path and click OK. Now, go to "File > Save Workspace"
so that your symbols path is saved for future use.
5. Go to "File > Open Crash Dump" and load the file.
(An "Open Crash Dump" screen will appear ... doubleclick "My Computer", doubleclick "Local Disk", doubleclick "Windows", doubleclick "Minidump", and doubleclick on one of the minidumps in there.)
You will/should get a message to save base workspace information. Choose no.
Now you will get a debugging screen. It takes a little bit to run it,
as the symbols have to be downloaded as they are needed.
After the "bugcheck analysis" part of the screen comes up, look for the component that seems to be causing the crash. (It'll say "Probably caused by" ...)
Let us know the precise name of the component. (Include any file name extensions like .dll or .sys.)
If you can, have a look at several of your crash dumps. Are all the crashes being caused by the same component? If not, could you let us know the names of the various components being cited in the various crash dumps?

The new version of firefox does not shut down when I close the browser it continues running in the background. In addition it opens Adobe Reader for a brief time and then that closes. Everything worked fine before this new version.

I use uTorrent but it will not shut down when i quit

Any torrent program will and can destroy your computer.
You are not the first and will not be the last to learn this.
UnInstall and if your machine is capable Repair Permissions and shut your computer clear off, this allows it to reset and then restart your computer. Be wary of anything you get from a torrent. Movie, Music, game, EVERYTHING.
