Spoff Posted January 24, 2012 Share Posted January 24, 2012 (edited) Until the problem with the PC restarting itself is solved. It has only happened to me once (after the latest patch no less). But after hearing that it has damaged components on some PC's, I simply can't afford to risk it. My PC is not even a week old, SWTOR is the only program installed on it and all my drivers are fully up to date. (it must be the patch as my old rig ran the game without any real problems). Shame, I was really enjoying the game too. Edited January 24, 2012 by Spoff Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CptBrit Posted January 24, 2012 Share Posted January 24, 2012 (edited) Wait what? Is this a problem that has been brought up by the patch today? or has it happened to people before this patch? I've had crashes to desktop but never a computer restart. Edited January 24, 2012 by CptBrit Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SWGVet Posted January 24, 2012 Share Posted January 24, 2012 (edited) What type of problem are you having with the computer?. Is it random blue screens with an an error code 1033?.

wilsonstone Posted January 24, 2012 Share Posted January 24, 2012 If your PC is restarting on its own, its most likely overheating. I'd check that and run some virus scans too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thomasgallant Posted January 24, 2012 Share Posted January 24, 2012 define a lot, this is the first I have seen about it I heard one guy claim that the game overheated his computer and blew his motherboard or cpu or videocard or something.. baseless claims that he couldnt prove. but that was ONE person..hardly alot.
