Batman: Arkham Asylum, Causes my PC to restart, Please help.
So I've just started playing the game for the first time. after about 5-15 mins of game play the game will randomly restart my computer, no blue screen, no error message just black screen, power light goes off for a second then the computer powers back up.
-
Things I've tried:
◘ At first I thought it might be my mild over clocking, so I cut it back then put it right back down to default. *no effect
◘ I've checked my temperatures right after crashing, and they are nice and cool (tho I can't say for sure what the exact temperature is at the time of crash, I have checked after 5mins of game play and well within the normal range)
◘ I have a enermax high end 500w PSU powering a e8500 and 260gtx, I dont think I am power starved, I have been running this rig for a few years now, with no such problems.
◘ I haven't played many games on my rig for a while now, so I booted up a game that I have dropped days of time on at a time, Skyrim, and it runs smoothly with out any issue what so ever, so I think its safe to assume that the problem is with Arkham/Unreal
◘ I have not tried adjusting the graphical settings yet, as the game seems to play as smooth as silk up until the random crash. They are all maxed out except AA at X2, not sure what I would adjust if at all.
◘Updated my drivers for the first time this year to the latest beta.
I dont't know what to try next, or what is the problem.
Please help.
