Look, I’ve tried everything. The rig is brand new. Everything is plugged in exactly how it should be, and I've even installed the latest drivers for every single component. But the second I launch a game, the whole thing just resets itself. Sometimes it happens after five minutes, sometimes it takes twenty, and occasionally I can get two hours out of it before it dies. The bottom line is that it keeps resetting constantly, and it's driving me crazy.
