i really have no idea why it is doing this...it does it about 3 or 4 times a day, i'll be playing medal of honor, and it will lock up, and either the window will pop up where you click don't send or send, or it will just freeze, or it will just reboot the computer, i really have no idea why it does this, moh, it really the only game it does it too (it had crashed doom3 twice) but still, only moh it seems....my specs are

2.2GHz xp3200+
1gig ram
80 gig hdd
ati 9800 pro
asus mobo

if anyone has any solutions, please let me know, keep in mind, i've tried nearly EVERYTHING on the computer to stop this...i haven't messed with hardware though...

Right click on My Computer (or go into My Computer) and click on Properties. Then click on the Advanced tab. Under Startup and Recovery, click Settings. Under System Failure, Uncheck the 3 boxes, especially "Automatically Restart." Then click OK. Now click on Error Reporting under the Advanced tab. Make sure Disable error reporting is chosen, and uncheck "But notify me when critical errors occur."

Click OK twice to get outta that. This may help and it may not. It helped my old computer a lot when it used to restart while playing BF 1942 (which uses a modified Medal of Honor engine). Good luck!

hmm...sadly that didn't fix the problem ....i can't imagine it could be a heat problem because i bought extra fans, a gfx card cooler, and a huge heatsink....i'm boggled by this...

Might want to see if there are any updated drivers for you hardware.. If nothing else, it's probably time to format the ol hard drive
