hi, i just started playing this game, but im starting to have troubles with it.
when i started the game, it seemed fine except for a few visual glitches every now and then, but the major problem is that now, every time the game loads, my computer decides to restart!
the restarting occurs more quickly every time i try to play the game, and now it restarts as soon as the game loads. whats should i do?
oh and... why do i keep having to redownloading that patch

Welcome to GameAmp.
First, The patch. You aren't redownloading it everytime - it's actually checking versions to make sure you don't have to download the patch.
Second...It sounds to me like one of 2 things can be your problem.
1) Your video card may be on the downfall. You might need to replace it soon.
2) Your POWER SUPPLY may be on the downfall. I'm leaning more towards this issue. If your power supply is dying, it will cause the computer to restart, because it doesn't have enough "juice" to keep it running.
I would look into getting a new power supply before looking at vid cards(it's cheaper after all.) After that, if the problem still exists, you already have a new power supply, you can easily get a new vid card and the power supply will handle it.

Your power supply is exactly what is sounds like, :) it gives power to your computer. I just upgraded mine as well i went from 300 watts to 400 watts and now my computer runs my video card. Best thing is to go to best buy and tell hem you want to upgrade your power supply, when you take your cover off your comp its usually a square looking box where you plug your power cord into.
