BSOD / System crash / reboot playing Star wars the old republic
Hello,
I have recently built a computer ( 2 days ago ) and have been having trouble when attempting to play the new game Star wars the old republic. After about 5 minutes my system crashes and restarts instantly to the same prompt when you force a shut down or lose power. All indications pointed me at hardware so I bench marked and stress tested but found no issues and no overheating of my Graphics card or CPU. after searching forum posts and what not the only thing I have found is I am getting Event log entries for Critical errors relating to kernel Power. I have replaced my Graphics card and wiped my hard drive and re-installed all drivers up to do date and windows several times to no avail. This issue only seems to happen when running that game other than that my computer performs beautifully and usually loads windows before the loading animation has even finished. The only things I have install are development tools ( Visual Studio 2010 pro, SQL Server 2008 r2 Express ) Star wars The Old Republic, and a few monitoring applications to check temps and loads. If you could please help point me in the right direction as to if / what is causing this problem it would be greatly appreciated.
My system specs are as follows:
OS: Windows 7 Ultimate x64 ( Retail ? it was download edition image from Microsoft )
It is the only OS I have installed on this computer
The hardware is all brand new
Currently the OS installation is only 2 days old.
