Default My computer randomly restarts when I play GW

Its happened 5 times in the last two days. Its not my computer overheating... I have run doom 3 and other hardware intensive games and not had problems. Any ideas? I can't find anything in the tech database on guildwars.com

There is nothing in my error log because the entire computer restarts. It hasn't ever happened before.

no problem, anytime. Did your client already update itself?

It hasn't restarted since I turned off Post-Process Effects. I'm hoping that fixed it. Sorry for the spam, thaks guys.

actually it's a shame that the company hasn't said anything about it, and denying that the client is the problem...let alone it not getting fixed yet.
