usual qz - im assuming that your computer meets the requirements of the game...

have you updated to the latest graphic card drivers?
have you got enough power to run the game? (PSU)

When the computer restarts go into your BIOS (usually by hitting the DEL key during boot) and search until you find the tempurature of your CPU/Motherboard, tell us what it says right after the crash

OK so you are not overheating (assuming those temps were right after the crash)

OK so go to your video card manufacturers website and get the newest drivers, then go to the game's website and download the newest update to the game

Give me the make and model of the card and I can find the drivers for you, use Everest to find out what you have
