    Take it as a sign not to play this rotten excuse for a game. Your computer restarting is a sign from Torm, Tyr and Tempus to play BG2 instead.

    Wow. What a brand of... nevermind.


    Have you tried the 1.67 Critical Rebuild patch? It does sound more like a GPU / CPU overheating problem though. Or possibly wrong drivers for something.

    Do you have a program to track computer temperatures?

    And NWN rocks. It's about as good as BG, just a totally different gamestyle.

    Another thing to try: check the game Sound Options and deactivate both EAX and Hardware Sound if enabled.

    You may be able to use the EAX options, as long as you keep Hardware Sound off. My own PC doesn't like that option.
