well i know that computers get ruined for playing games with them, but we just had the memory replaced, i was playing World of Warcraft and it just suddenly shut down, without me pressing anything. This used to happen constantly before but after the memory was replaced it stopped and mac support told me that it would be fine but know is started to shut down again an i am worry it will get ruined again. Please is there something i can do in order to stop it from shutting down or getting ruined again. PLease help!!!

Games don't ruin computers... who told you that? Games only rot your brains :)

But that sounds like it's not the RAM. If it powers down... I'm guessing it just quits... as though the power is turned off... It's probably the power and not RAM.

I've never known of games literally killing computers. Are other applications holding on to some RAM when you're playing WoW?
