Vista - Crysis causes my system to restart

Ravenstorm · 04-28-2009

I have just re installed crysis today on my system and all was fine, I played it for a few hours on high settings and max res. I went to work and got home tried to load it and it begins to load then 20 seconds in causes my system to restart....

Any Ideas lads and ladies?

Hi Ravenstorm, try reinstalling the game. OR try a system restore and restore the computer before you have installed the game and then install the game.
Let us know what happens then?

6GB on a 32bit system? that seems overkilled. How old are your video, monitor & audio drivers? I would start by taking 2 or even 3 GBs of RAM and installing fresh drivers to see if the problem goes away.

He needs 6GB's in for triple channel albeit it's too much for 32 bit.

hey guys,
got a similar problem,
i just installed crysis, played for a few hours and everything was fine.
then i applied the 1.2 and 1.21 patches, since then every time i play, after 10-15min the game crashes.
at the last time i even got a blue screen of death

the error log says:

This may not be a solution but, it seems to me the more technology advances, the more flaky it gets so, when this happens to me, I uninstall the video, sound & monitor drivers, restart and install a fresh copy of the latest drivers for it. I do make sure I "Run as Administrator" when installing though.

Might be worth a shot.
