Hello.
I want to ask if anyone else had this problem...after about 15-20 min. the game blocks, goes black screen and in 4-5 seconds my computer restarts.
I don't believe it's a computer error because this only happens when I play Perfect World, everytime (at least 5 times until now). :(
I have a good computer (2.13 Dual Core, 1GB DDR2, video 256 DDR3 and plenty of free space on my HDD) and I even tryied lowering the graphics but no use.
Any idea on what it might be ? :confused:
The game seems very nice and I would realy like to play but I can't in these conditions.

    Hey, I have a feeling I know what might be the issue. Just to make sure, can you pm me your dxdiag? Do not post here for your privacy. I would be glad to assist you.

    possible graphics card overheat. Try opening your case sidepanel.

    My graphic card has a cooler. And this does not happen when I run other games that are more demanding.

    If you're using an agp ati card search the other reboot thread for which drivers to use. There's a known bug with the ati drivers for some cards.
