Hrm, not a bad idea I'll give it a shot. Just think its odd that this is the only app that is causing this sort of behavior on my machine, I play other high performance games like Crysis and don't have any stability issues. I'll dial it down a bit see if that helps, thanks for the input. ---------- Post added at 12:33 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:00 AM ---------- Well got it down about as low as it can go settings wise and same problem occurs, anyone have any suggestions? Thanks.

Hi there, Usually play it for a bit (20 minutes to 45 minutes) then my PC instantly powers down and then boots again after a second. I have the steam version of Arma 2, ATI Radeon HD 4870 w/ latest drivers, Intel Core 2 Duo 3.2 ghz and about 4gb of memory so should run it just fine. I originally had my cpu and video overclocked but after the restarts I restored stock speeds to both, still have the same problem. Play other games just fine with no issues and I've been lurking on the forums for a couple weeks and haven't seen this particular problem yet. Any suggestions? Arma 2 is a great fun game, this makes it no fun to play though. :( Thanks for any assistance.
