Jump to PostYea, I would go with a hardware problem on this one.. How old is your system? Check your fan's speed in the bios.. Probably an overheating issue w/ ur fan and thermal compound.. You might want to buy a new fan.
Jump to PostThe new AMD's stay cooler than the P4's.
But the old AMDs had major heat issues

Well this could be a couple of things.
you may need new thermal compound on CPU and your fan may be going on the heat sink.
Your powersupply could be failing.
or the Motherboard or CPU could be failing.
Could also be a virus.

That was the problem with AMD's, they over heat quicker.

Yea, I am not sure about the new ones, i have an AMD 64 3000+, doesnt get hot. Like jbennet said, it was just probably the old ones
