Windows crashes randomly?

Nirmal

Basically while playing any games for about 30 minutes my computer will crash with a loud buzzing noise. I think that the buzzing noise is actually a repeating loop of the last sound the system played before crashing. I thought that it might have been my GPU so I got a new one but that did not fix anything. Luckily I was needing to upgrade anyways.

Is your cpu overheating? Maybe a doggy power supply?

most freezes and bsod's are more often than not a software (driver issue not hardware. check your eventviewer and check your dump files with windbg. post some codes and we can go from there.
