ahh sounds like your vid card is the problem. The game makes your internal vidja card unstable so it restarts your comp. Happens to me in BF2 and i have a BFG GeForce 5500 after it restarted in BF2, i got on GW and it did the same thing during a mission. I mostly have troubles opening my inv in towns and such.

I'd suggest getting a better video card that GW supposts (I hear that they support the GeForce 6000 series.. not too sure about ATI.

OR you could try reducing the games Video quality a few notches

(If your not getting a new video card which is a better option)
