Hi all,

Intel D845GVSR chipset
Pentium 4 prcessor with 2.4G.Hz speed
2 rams i.e 1gb ddr and 256mb ddr. total is 1.25 gb
one samsung cd writer and Lg DVD writer.
160gb seegate and 40gb samsung harddisks

In the above given details 160gb harddisk and dvd writer and 1gb ram are newly installed.

I am having cricket 2007 game, while playing that game for 20 min or more my system get shutdown i.e its freezes automatically, I knew that this is because of high temperature of my cpu to protect processor its get shutdown, So please give me a solution .

if you know for sure that is the case and there is enough cooling on your CPU and system and downclocking is the only thing you can do (if you can)what makes you say thats the case my man

I am sure the heat is the main problem, is that using two cd drives make over heating of cpu?
how to increase the temperature limit of my pc?

the two cd drives has nothing to do with cpu overheating.ohk then check your internal fans of your system make sure that your cpu fan is properly seated on heatsink. also your BIOS should give you an idea of computer(cpu) temp.

How to check the CPU Temperature in BIOS, first how to go to BIOS settings.
