I have recently installed Vampire bloodlines on my PC. I am able to get to the initial screen to start a new game but when it goes to load the first level the computer reboots. I have a 300W PSU / GF4 Ti4200 / maxtor 7200 HDD.. I have recently replaced the PSU, installed the updated drivers for teh nvidia card, ensured directx at 9.0c.. still having the trouble there are no errors messages that appear prior to reboot or anything.. The system just simply reboots and reloads XP without error. Any Ideas?

What is your cpu and motherboard. Also do you know the temp of the gpu, cpu, etc. when it reloads. AND is this a legal or copied with crack install?
