Curse

I've been playing GW on this computer for at least 8 months, and recently it's been randomly shutting off and restarting while I'm in the middle of playing. I checked event viewer and found the error:

Code:

Event Type:	Error
Event Source:	Application Popup
Event Category:	None
Event ID:	877

There was error [DATABASE OPEN FAILED] processing the driver database.

Anyone know how to fix?

Do all the usual stuff first - open the computer up and blow out the dust bunnies; make sure all the cooling fans are running properly.

the event viewer says theres a driver error, so do as the above poster says also try reinstalling the newest drivers, also this is a long shot but is your card over clocked? I had trouble playing Deadspace on my pc it would play eveything else fine but always restarted it self while I played Deadspace so I reduced the clockspeeds on the card and it works fine now.

It's not overclocked at all. I'll try Quaker's and Mojo's suggestions, tell you how it works!

Lol I fixed it. I forgot that I needed to plug my ram sticks back in. The game was overwhelming my computer and freezing it up. Thanks for your input though! Could this be locked please?
