Computer Shuts down while on Crysis Warhead

Everytime i play crysis warhead, my computer shuts down and restarts itself after a couple of seconds. This problem only occurs while playing Crysis. I played other games like battlefield 2 and Arma 2 and it ran fine w.o Shutting down. i have a Thermaltake 750W PSU, EVGA GTX275, 4Gb ddr3, Asus P5E3 WS Professional Mobo, and a Intel Q6600 at 3GHz. What might be the cause of this problem.

CPU and GPU temps were normal under heavy load.

How did you test your temps? The *only* real way to test it would be to run Crysis Warhead in a window. Run it in a window just slightly smaller (resolution wise) than your full screen, with all other settings being the same. Run RivaTuner in the background with the temp gauge set to show in your icons tray. I can *guarantee* Crysis Warhead will push your GPU temps significantly beyond what any other game you've played has done. - Crysis "kills" midrange GPUs by tanking the framerate. Crysis "kills" high-end GPUs by pushing the system so hard that something overheats.subrosian

wow the below requirnments.. lololol. your totally fine to run that game. good god.

try reinstalling sometimes the game messes with some important registries. also reinstalle display drivers and motherboard drivers. only takes a few mins.

How do I get RivaTurner to show my Temps?

please i need help, my pc shuts down right after loading a save game on crysis. it happens randomly. and i dont know whats causing it. Though if i get passed the loading screen i can play endlessly with no crash or shutdown. my gpu temps is onl 69c, cpu temps is 49, i also have the 190.38 version driver. could it be the driver causing it to shut down?.

Another person a few threads down seems to have had the same problem. Check his thread and see if he has solved it.

Also, I'm probably wrong but it might be an unstable chip (resulting from overclocking etc) that Crysis Warhead is putting under a load of strain, down the graphics, or it may be a really bad bug. I've had way too many problems with games (bugs, drivers, mods etc) and wish I could be more helpful.

i dont havve a video cam :( but ill try to explain a little better.

While waiting for the level to load, when it hits roughly 99% load completetion. my computer turn itself off, (like when you lose electricity power for a few second) Then it turn itself on a few second later, rebooting the pc.

Now it could be my psu thats causing it, but crysis is the only game that shuts down my computer. And i have 850w OCZ gamexstream psu, more to handle crysis.

IF it does get passed the loading screen, i can play crysis endlessly non stop.

The random shut down always seem to trigger at the end of the loading screen. Nowehere else.

I have exactly the same problem.

Yesterday I posted a thread about it. I even changed my case yesterday to a gaming one. I use a TRUST 570 Pro PSU, I was thinking to get a PSU like yours but it looks like you've got the same problem as me despite the fact that you've got an 850 Watt PSU.:(

What temperature do you get when playing it? Cos I also have problems with Crysis Warhead and Wars. But I also have problems with James Bond 007 and Frontlines Fuel of War.

I use the Sapphire ATI Radeon HD 4890 OverClocked Edition. Never had a problem with Warhead with previous 8600GT!

By the way, do you use a 24 inch HD monitor. Cos I use one, which im not sure if that's also another factor for my PC shutting down.:?

Try uninstalling the game, removing hte folder from program files and all of the registry keys. Then defrag, install it and defrag again :D

Although i have seen soooo many threads saying crysis causing pc to shutdown. it could be anything for all i know, but ill try anything to get it to stop shutting my pc down.

p.s i never had shutdown issue with my 7600gt or 9800gt or gtx 260. could it be drivers? i have version 190.38 vista 64

Hmm, mine goes higher than that, about 75 degrees+ and then shuts down. My fan speed is set on 35% though. With 35% I get 55 to 61 degrees on idle.

What fan speed percentage is your set on? Oh and what monitor do you have. Mine seemed to have increased ever since putting my 24 inch Samsung T240 monitor. It was less hot on my old 19 inch monitor. Im not sure although some people have said that themonitor shouldn't be a reason.

Have you tried playing in open lid? Opening the lid of your tower case and see if it shuts down in the same way. I remember being able to play some 2 months ago on open lid for about 2 hours with no problem but then I shut my lid back on again, so I don't know if this is any more helpful or not.

your hardware is well below the requierments upgrade to A 295gtx oc, and an i7. bcroger2

Hmmm.

Despite the fact that this time my side panal lid was open, it still shutted down. This time its not my graphics card overheating. Because the temperature of the graphics card was only 69 degrees celcius during game.

Its either my power supply or something else. I only have a 570 watt PSU. Now I wonder if I get a 750 Watt or higher, whether it will improve situations or not. Is there anyway to test the temperature of other components other than the graphics card?

I wonder if the motherboard, powersupply, etc is overheating too which is causing it to shut down. Im rather confused now./:?

By the way, to how much do I have to underclock my ATI HD 4890 OC card so that it is stable as well as smooth with my games? My GPU clock is 901MHz by default manufactured and memory clock at 1000MHz do I have to reduce this too, and will it make any difference to reducing the risk of the PC shutting down?

i set my fan speed at 60%, If my fan speed is at stock speed (40%) temp goes up to 80c.

im using a 22 inch LG lcd.

i have 4x120mm fan on the side blowing really cold air. (its winter time in australia.) room temp is about 13 degrees celcius

I managed to play Crysis Wars online for about 3 hours without my PC shutting down but that's when I reduced my resolution to 1440x900 with open lid and fan speed set to 50% although it didn't shut down. The temperature wasn't veryhigh either, it was about 70 degreescelcius, which is acceptable though.

But if I set the resolution any higher than 1440x900 my PC would instantly shut down, a lower resolution in Crysis keeps it running flawlessly.

I guess my 570 Watt Powersupply is too weak to handle the Sapphire ATI HD4890 GPU, I guess.:(

I'll be looking to change to a higher watt PSU. A friend of mind had exactly the same problem, he resolved it by gettinga 1000W PSU.

But what kind of Watt PSU will handle Crysis without it shutting off? Will a 750 Watt do any good? I looked at a PSU branded CiT, is that any good or safe to use? Or do I really need to get a Corsaire or OCZ for it to work fine?

Thanks.

Oh okay crysis warhead that's about right system requirements for lowest settings i thought you meant crysis lol. Does your hard-drive have enough space? bcroger2

For the love of anything you hold sacred, would you please listen to everyone telling you not to buy off-brand power supplies?!!! I don't care if it's a 2000 watt! I'm telling you.. if you get a 550-600 Watt power supply from a GOOD QUALITY NAME BRAND, you will save yourself alot of trouble. I was on that other thread and I don't know how many people told you the same thing. Corsair, OCZ, Cooler Master, Antec, PC Power and Cooling. Those are some good brands. Just because the wattage ratings are the same does not mean they are all the same!! It's like a good engine and a bad engine rated at the same horsepower. One will last 300,000 miles and give you no trouble.. but the cheaper one you got thinking it was the same will give you trouble down the road. DON'T CHEAP OUT ON POWER SUPPLIES!

I've heard it a lot. But they are too expensive. I've already spent quite a lot of money for my gaming case as well as my GPU that's why Im interested in a cheaper solution.

Well I've been using my cheap TRUST 570 Watt PSU for well over a year. Before with my 8600GT. Now ofcourse its struggling with the Sapphire ATI HD4890 OC Edition due to lack of power.

I mean, come on are these the only brands that are good? Aren't their many others? I've heard a lot about Corsair and OCZ.

Lots of people have told me that my TRUST 570 Watt PSU will explode, well it didn't, I've been using it for over a year and nothings happened. Just because its cheap from an unpopular brand doesn't mean it will suck.

Surely there must be a cheap PSU with high Watts that will do the job without any problems?:roll: I am sure there are problematic PSU. But I am also pretty sure that there are cheap GPUs like my TRUST branded PSU that will do the job. Its just a case of getting a higher watt PSU, really.

Don't get angry on me.:lol:

ok so i uninstalled crysis then tried to reinstall it. half way through. i went to get a drink and came back and my computer was rebooting. WTF. DID it shut down while installing. sooo **** weird. my pc must hate crysis

is there a way to check to why my pc shuts down. I know my other computer pops up a msg after reboot telling me what caused the unexpected shut down

I managed to play Crysis Wars online for about 3 hours without my PC shutting down but that's when I reduced my resolution to 1440x900 with open lid and fan speed set to 50% although it didn't shut down.

By the way, what was your first power supply brand name?

I don't know, but when I look through ebuyer and amazon I find myself seeing 5 star reviews for many of the cheap power supplies too. How do you explain that?

Is there a way to test how good my power supply is, such as information like how much voltage and watts it impluses into the components?

By the way my Trust 570 Watt Pro PSU has lasted for about a year so far. For how long would you assume that it will last for again before it stops working? And would my motherboard be able to cope with loads of watts. Is there a limit to my motherboard tolerating high amount of PSU watts or is it always safe getting a higher Watt PSU?

And if I buy for example a 1000Watt+ PSU how long will it survive? I mean in 2-4 years I'll be upgrading my graphics card again, what are the chances that my PSU will support those new graphics cards? The graphics card might require 2000 watts!It looks like I'll have to upgrade the PSU+GPU again to enjoy great gaming.;)

Your voltages are monitored in the computer's bios.. but they are not REALLY tested until you put the computer through some torture-testing (Games and benchmarks).

I can explain people putting good reviews on anything. I know lots of people that like newer Mopar automotive products too.. but they're still junk (another thing I learned the hard way).

Stop trying to reinvent the wheel and just do what we're telling you to! It's only from many years of experience and trial and error!

Everytime i play crysis warhead, my computer shuts down and restarts itself after a couple of seconds. This problem only occurs while playing Crysis. I played other games like battlefield 2 and Arma 2 and it ran fine w.o Shutting down. i have a Thermaltake 750W PSU, EVGA GTX275, 4Gb ddr3, Asus P5E3 WS Professional Mobo, and a Intel Q6600 at 3GHz. What might be the cause of this problem.

i initially had this problem while running crysis. my pc would restart after jumping out of the plane in the beginning. anyway, download the latest patches for the game, and update your video card driver and/or bios.

oh by the way, when i say pc keeps shutting down. what i mean is it turn itself off like the power went out then boot itself up a few second after. could it be voltage or mobo shorting itself out?

it has even turn itself off while im in BIOS. wtf

hey guys i think i found the problem. i have a shorting problem. my cpu cooler bracket is touching the metal frame of my case because it doesnt alligned into the hole. Can this cause a short circuit problem with the mobo

p.s i have the spacer screws in so mobo doesnt touch the metal frame, but it doesnt stop cpu cooler bracket from touching frame.

bump

anyone know if that could be the reason? because its causing it to shorting the mobo

i have used my spare computer psu (antec truepower blue 750w) that too shuts down my psu. so im thinking its not a psu problem as 2 psu didnt solve problem. im think its a shorting somewhere. im guessing cause my cpu cooler bracket is in contact with the metal frame.
