Hey i noticed there was another one of these but desided to post my own so not to interfere as mine hasn't actually died.

My mum turned the pc on this morning and got that message saying taht the system had failed due to overclocking. But when she rebooted it worked. So what does that mean? Is my pc going to die? Or was it a one off? I need it to last till the new GTS comes out :(

Its an amd 3500, not sure what mobo as its 3 years old and was made by a company and i dont think i can even get into overclocking options.
