Hello whenever i play games my computer has a "Crash Dump" with a blue
screen i do some system restore everytime and it has its own timer weird
its about 45mins into playing a game and shutsdown! i was wondering if
putting my computer to factory settings would help? and i do not know
how to do that could any of you explain how and no the system restore
thing does not work for me to put it in an earlier time where it worked
because it only shows it 5 days ago. so please help ?

Sounds like your machine/video card is overheating. Reinstalling Windows
won't do a thing to help failing hardware. Start your troubleshooting
there.

Is that with all games, or just with one particular game?
