I had been playing Batman Arkham Knight for a few hours straight(Around 5 hrs) and suddenly during a fight the display went off and the computer still works and it shows high disk usage led. After waiting for a minute I pressed the rest button and he PC after few seconds went off. I pressed power button and it again went off. I tried once more and this time it just idles like fans spin but no POST. I have now turned PC off. What's the cause of this ? What to do ? Temps were fine as I remember checking temps probably sometime before fissure and it was around 60c for CPU and around 70C for GPU. Thanks.
