For some reason when I try and play motor gp 2 my computer restarts itself. Other games I can play fine, its just this one, I tried to change the settings on the game to the lowest resolution etc but still no joy,

My graphics are nvadia ge force 2 intergrated 64, (crap I know)
but I should still be able to play games ok on it?
Cheers Mike.

First of all go to the Nvida site and get the latest drivers for your graphics chip, as they are "on board" the drivers probly came bundled with the motherboard drivers, chances are there is a better version available. Also, assuming you are on XP, go to :

start/settigs/cotrol panel/system.

click the advanced tab.

under the bit where it says "startup & recovery", click the settings button.

in the bit called "system failure" untick the box called "restart automatically"

try the game again and see what happens.
