Star wars battlefront 2 completely shuts down pc

I recently got SW2 for my birthday and i tried launching it today. But every single time I launch the game I get into the loading screen and my pc just completely shuts down. Both my monitors go to black and my pc doensnt react to anything. I dont know what the problem causes. I dont get any sort of system errors either

Setup:

AMD FX-8350

GTX 1070

8gb ddr3 ram

MSI 970 gaming

    It is possible your machine may be defaulting to the Intel video processing on your CPU rather than your nvidia GPU.

    1. Open the nvidia Control Panel
    2. Click Manage 3D settings
    3. Click the Program Settings tab
    4. Click the Add button
    5. Select the game from the list or click browse and navigate to C:\Program Files (x86)\Origin Games\STAR WARS Battlefront II\starwarsbattlefrontii.exe
    6. Select starwarsbattlefrontii.exe and then Open
    7. Customise individual settings if you like
    8. Exit nvidia control panel and try playing.

    Do let us know if this helps, thanks.

    I'm closing this thread to stop it from being necroed.

    If you have any issues with SWBF2 please make a new topic about the issues you are having and what kind of steps you have tried to solve them.
