Greetings.

Today I was playing samp suddenly my pc shutted down. I turned it on and it restarted automatically, turned it on and it freezed to the 'Welcome' - I have Windows Xp. I restarted it again and worked properly, I went on samp and it started auto-adjusting. I went to remove the gta_sa.set file and it still isn't with the needed sizes. Just happend today. In the past the gta sa set file when I was removing it, it used to fix me the problem but now it's not. My pc also made a bit weird noise.

Please advice me what should I do.

Cheers

Maybe your graphics card got knocked loose or the connection is bad? Oh check power cords, HDMI Cables etc...

Saying "made a bit weird noise" isn't exactly definitive, what sort of noise, a crackling noise, a grinding noise, a beeping noise?
It sounds like your PC was overheating if it suddenly turned itself off, the noise, if any could be the fans spinning at higher RPMs to try and cool the overheating system.

Everything seems fine regarding to graphic card

A crackling noise, I also thought my pc is overheated but no I don't think so, it only has 4 - 5 hours staying on, usually hold it 10 hours on per day, but I don't think 5 hours will make my pc overheated

If the CPUs cooler is blocked it can overheat within 30 seconds, it all depends on the airflow and the amount of dirt/dust in the fans and coolers.

I'll clear the dust and will turn on the pc some hours later, I'll update.

Windows XP and you run ENB, right?

May I know your PC's specs?
