Run Disk Defrag and Disk Cleanup. The problem is that it might be trying to take up more disk space. Oh, try and close some things you dont need open.

It didn't start doing this til recently and the hard drive isn't making any kind of noise at all and the processor isn't even getting hot and the power supply is brand new and the graphics card is only 2 months old and there's no dust anywhere and the fans sound fine and all my drivers are up to date and I don't have any malware and FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUCK

CRASHED 3 TIMES IN THE LAST 2 HOURS ADADFAFFAFA

Now you know how it feels to be me. :panda:


Often happens to me when I play Freejack, Crysis 2, or other higher spec games. I'm using a laptop, but it mostly comes down to the stufftiness of my fan. I think 100 degrees+ is honestly a bit much, but since you're probably on a desktop, I don't really know.
In my case clearing diskspace and making sure nothing unnecessary was running using task manager worked to make it a bit better.

My processor has a safe operating temperature of up to 158 degrees Fahrenheit, 100 degrees is actually cooler than a cat's internal body temperature.

And it didn't used to this, and I've actually gained about 100 Gigabytes of harddrive space for deleting my "Windows.old" folder for my previous installation and I never had to close stuff out until recently.

Check your motherboard for damage, eg bulging capacitors.

Turn some processes off that you aren't using, I had to do that when my comp was sucking.

I swear I read 100 degrees Celsius, but I reread and it was Fahrenheit.

I think if my computer was running at 100 degrees celcius it would explode.

Ehh wot's that?

These:

If they are bulging at the top then they're probably bad.


It's not a PSU problem, so it's either temperature or bulging capacitors, like Pentium said.
What's the temperature of your GPU while you're gaming? A fan could've stopped working at it's max.

I've got an old motherboard with bulging capacitors, it had the same issue, but it was a PSU problem. Still works.

its not heat.
