Did you muck about in the BIOS when you got the new machine?

I'll take some time to go through these steps ASAP.
When the system was assembled, there was tinkering within the BIOS, however as of right now, I believe everything is running at stock settings. Is this something that can affect Battlefront 2 directly? As I mentioned, I have had no issues with any other games; some more demanding and resource intensive than BFII itself and they have been fine. The Dxdiag is attached also.
Literally having the exact same situation as @APlankOfWood0 except with a GTX 770 card.
Without fail, after 10 minutes of flawless 60fps gameplay, I crash to desktop with the error "Nvidia Display Kernel Driver (something like that) has crashed and recovered". I tried updating my drivers and this simply made my computer reboot randomly with and without launching this game periodically until I reverted to older drivers.
I solved my PC rebooting randomly issue, but the game still crashes after about (I swear I am about to start timing it) 10 minutes, in menu or in game, doesn't make a difference.
This is the only game this happens with. Prior to being forced to update my drivers when I installed BF2 several months ago I never had any issues, and recently, the last few days especially, the crashes are consistent and make the game unplayable as well as have made my system seem less stable then before. Would love an answer to what can be done now that I know I am not the only one experiencing this lately.
