Graphics Card Gets Reset (Or something like it)

[ChronicBum]

I can play the game great for about 10-15 mins, but then my graphics card somehow screws up and I have to reboot in order to make everything work again. Its like it somehow disables the card. Says something like nv4_disp is no longer working correctly and needs to be rebooted. Has ne1 else ever seen this? Please help. I have liked what I have played so far.

Could you please post your Dxdiag dump?

(Start button - click -choose run - type dxdiag - press enter - let it chunter away for a min - select "save all information" - then post here using the 'advance' button below.

It would be helpful if you could give other known symptoms (slow game play - slow turns - large save files - long save time - etc - anything unsual - does it tend to happen early/late/or middle game - what size maps play small/standard/large/huge etc) .

Regards
Zy

I can see its one of two problems

1. You graphics card is overheating, make sure the fan is working and clean the fan and heatsink if they are dirty.

2. The nv4_disp error is related to the drivers for your video card, make sure they are up to date.
