Graphics trouble

Post by Invictus ChiKen »

I had to redo my computer recently. Total restore.

I downloaded the drivers for my G-Force 7600 off of NVIDIA yet now when ever I play Dawn of War. My computer will restart itself.

Any ideas what is going on?

maybe you get a blue screen and have automatic restart enabled?

Do system check. Look if your cooling fan is working. Had that problem.

update/reinstall directx. I had a similar problem when I installed my 6800 a while back and that fixed it.
