When I start a game like Dungeon siege II or Guild Wars, my comp restart. I tried to google it and found that I need to uncheck the Restart thing in my recovery tabs. The point is that it's not even cheked and it reboot! It never happen to me b4 when i was using Guild war. You got any ideas?

call me crazy, but I´ve never done any windows updates since SP1....
but I have less problems than all people with fully patched systems I know.
those updates may be useful for people who click on every link they see, open every email attachment they get, don´t know how to disable useless services and have no idea how to configure a firewall. but if you established your own system settings different from the default ones those updates mess up your system...that´s why I´ve quitted getting updates (um,besides another reason of course *coughs*), and since then I never had any problems again....

that used to happen to me and it was a RAM problem (only when i had both sticks in) but seeing it works with older drivers it doesn't look like thats the reason.
Do you have the latest motherboard drivers? a few times using the drivers out of the box and not using the most recent ones has caused me alot of pain.
