Well, if it’s not one thing it’s another. For the last several weeks, I’ve been battling with the PC shutting off. And doing the research and digging through the blogs and tech decks and so forth, it appears to be a fault with the AMD CPU. I’ve tried changing settings in the bios, tried overclocking it, under clocking it, over volting it, under volting it, turning off idle State, turning on idle State, none of which has made any difference. Yesterday, it restarted seven times while basically idle. What I’m playing a game or editing a video and rendering it stays stable, but while it’s just kind of chilling out it shuts down. That’s unfortunate. It’s making it hard for me to be interested in starting streaming again. To stream,you need a stable machine that’s going to run for 2, 3, 4 hours at a pop without crashing.
Well tonight, I thought I’d try again. It had been stable all day today, so I thought I might be able to get a brief stream in before bed. I managed to get the game up the streaming software loaded and even started the stream and got into the first scene of the game. And then. . .
The cat jumped down off the desk and landed directly on the power button, shutting the computer off completely near minutes after I had started my last ditch attempt to stream. The world is telling me something perhaps not to strain. Or perhaps to get that power covered up. Anyway, will be back to it when we can get back to it. I must say, though, it was frustrating.
Namaste!
