Bf2 makes my comp restart

[imported_The Cow Goes moo]

When I play BF2 it has a chance to make my computer restart! I have no clue why, It just happened one day. When I start my computer back up it will say "Your computer has recovered from a serious error" (I'm thinking "No, REALLY?").

Anyone have any idea why?

Re: Bf2 makes my comp restart

this always used to happen to me with my old PC.
probably graphics card problem. tried updating drivers?
i think, your card gets too overheated, and your pc restarts before it gets too damaged. not sure though. but updating my graphics drivers always used to stop it restarting.

Same thing happens to me except my PC doesn't restart but shuts down all the way. It only happens when I play BF2. I have a Pentium D 3.2 GHz with Ati X800.

I will move this to support.

I want you to turn off automatic restart. To do this, do the following:

Control Panel -> Performance and Maintenance -> System -> Advanced -> Startup and recovery Options -> Uncheck "automatically restart" under System Failure.

This will allow you to see the halt code. Copy it, or take a picture of it and post it here.
