Hi, so last night I started to play shadow of mordor for the first time on my 2 month old computer and this morning i had a problem with booting. Its an msi 970-G43 plus motherboard and when i started it up today it wouldnt post but it did show a 99 in the bottom right corner of the monitor. So i decided to shut it off and clean some of the dust out of the fans although it really wasnt that dusty, in doing so i took all the usb devices out of the ports, then turned it back on. It worked fine and booted as it normally does. Just now i was playing shadow of mordor and the screen went completely red and there was a loud buzzing noice from my headphones. I quickly shut off my computer and waited a while and tried to turn it back on. I then got the same no post and the 99 in the bottom right corner. I was then looking if anyone had this problem and they said something about taking all the usb devices out, so once again i did that and it booted again. Does anyone know what could cause this? Was it the game or the motherboard or something?  Thanks

However i dont think thats whats causing it

That PSU should be fine, true, but it's to be sure that it's not a weird POS messing with everything.

Anyway what i would do is RMA the board if it's not too big of an issue.

If that's too difficult i would try to upgrade the BIOS to the latest one if you are using an older one.

If you want my attention, quote meh! D: or just stick an @samcool55 in your post :3
