Default System restarts when loading FarCry


Hi.
I installed the game FarCry from my original CD's along with it's patch v1.4 yesterday & was running fine without any problems.
But today, when I'm trying to run the game, while loading any level, the system restarts.
I have previously installed & played the same game 5-6 times successfully.
I don't know what happenned.
I haven't done any changes to the system since I installed the game.
Kindly help.

Default Re: System restarts when loading FarCry

This is the first time this problem has occurred.
I had played the game with this patch previously too & never faced this problem.
I have the latest updated drivers for all of my hardware.
2 months ago, my hard disk had crashed.
So, I was given a replacement hard disk.
Could the problem be because of the new hard disk?
My game loads fine but when starting any level, the system restarts.
I have to reload the game 3-4 times before it eventually runs fine.
I have checked the hard disk for problems & it shows non.

Default Re: System restarts when loading FarCry

well same is the case with my frnd also....
at that time i didnt found any solution but i guess this is due to AMD processor...
as we know processor is fast but cant load this high graphics...and farcry is two heavy for AMD..and when next u enter to next level the processor has to load all the setup..and AMD here fails to load again....my frnd also having AMD..
but solution to this is dont run any other application when u r playing far cry..

Default Re: System restarts when loading FarCry

Like, I said I have latest processor, graphics, soundcard & mobo drivers as well as firmware installed.
I have played the same game 5-6 times successfully before.
I bought the game in August 2005 & have been playing it ever since successfully without any problems on the same computer configuration I currently have.
I have played heavier games than Farcry also but never faced this problem with any of them.
