Crashing computer patch 1.1

[of_the_cheese]

Hi i know this my seem like a repeat thread but i havent seen anyone having the same problem. the game crashes completely and takes the computer with it not to desktop to reboot straight away no exeception file being created and it does it after about 10-15 mins of playing. even if i set all graphics to low and all nicetys off it still does it. Was fine right up till i got to the labrinth where i now cant complete it as i just crashes and reboots. i have a reasonable system and the temps are all fine so its not overheating have checked. its a great game and have loved it so far really hope this can get sorted as i just cant get any further.

My System
All latest drivers used and windows fully updated

AMD athlon 64 4000 (@2.7Ghz)
Abit AN8 Fatal1ty Mobo
2GB Corsair 3500LL Pro
Nvidia 7800Gtx 256Mb (91.31 Forceware)
2x250Gb Western Digital Cavalir (Raid 0)

Try under clocking your video card. I was having the same issue with an Nvidia card the BFG 6800GT. The game causes the card to oveheat and your system crashes. If you don't have the option to play with clock frequency in your Nvidia control panel then download CoolBits http://www.cybertechhelp.com/download/file/coolbits

the Gfx card is not overclocked its as i left the factory having experienced problems with this before.

but i shall try underclocking it

ok tried that exactly the same problem temp didnt even get over 50 degrees C
mobo was @ 45 degrees C CPU was @ 35 degrees C Case temp was 40 Degrees C. so i cant see it being temperature related.

If you start a new game does it crash? If it does try lowering your clock speeds more.

ok really underclocked it to 400Mhz GPU and 1000Mhz Ram and still crashes

If you can send the file described in this post to us it would be helpful.

Thanks,

unfortunatly there is no file there i have looked and as i mentioned before i dont think it has time to create it as it just shuts down and restarts.

Are you overclocking your CPU?

My AMD 64 used to get really unstable if overclocked even by half a percent, even though the temperature used to be fine. It caused all kinds of nightmares with Halflife 2.

Once I reset it it to factory it was fine.

yes its overclocked and i have been running haf life 2, BF2, F.E.A.R, Dawn of War, oblivian, etc fine on it had some issues with BF2 with an overclocked GFX card but its now running standard clocks and have tried putting the cpu back to standard and still no joy.
