TheSebmeister Posted December 28, 2011 Share Posted December 28, 2011 Hello all, I seem to have a serious problem with Skyrim. I seem to play for a little while and all of a sudden, my desktop crashes. The power to the monitor goes out, the PC seems to get quieter, and I need to unsafely turn off my PC. This happens on any graphics setting and is really starting to annoy. I love the game but don't want it to kill my PC all the time. The monitor says "DVI-D Power Saving Mode" when system crashes, the saem as when it is off. I have a HDMI cable to the monitor aswell. Specs:ATI Radeon HD 6850 Gigabyte overclockedGigabyte MA790XT-UD4P MoboUnlocked AMD Phenom II X4 B50 3.2GHzLG Flatron E2441 Monitor with HDMI input6Gb of 1066 MHz RAMOther than the info I have given above, I used DX11 and no applications in the background.

kendubz09 Posted December 28, 2011 Share Posted December 28, 2011 it sounds like skyrim makes your computer turn it self off that normaly happens when your computer is useing up all your ram so it shuts down to prevents any damage Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheReverendTholomewPlague Posted December 28, 2011 Share Posted December 28, 2011 You didn't mention what power supply you have. Without that info, I'm just gonna blame the power supply ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
