Re: PC shuts down hard only when running starwarBF

If you are able to run in windowed mode, but not fullscreen, this makes me think you are at or below minimum specs for your GPU.  What GPU are you currently running?

ati sapphire r9 280x 

core i7 920 at 2.91G

12G Gskill DDR3

all latest drivers

attached is my temps in game, settings 1080p, res scale 108%, no vsync, ultra, except light and shadows on high, AO off

air cooling

been playing this since release and no problems until the latest update.

Considering you have changed between AMD <--> Nvidia how did you uninstall the previous drivers?

I can recommend the display driver uninstaller http://www.guru3d.com/files-details/display-driver-uninstaller-download.html run after you reboot into safe mode to remove all drivers and the do a clean install of the newest 16.1 driver.

just got this error. i guess this could be caused by the PSU not giving enough power to the graphics card. it does happen in all games now, not just origin. only happens in games, no errors anywhere else. did memtest all sticks passed on 1 pass each. board is a sabertooth x58

 you'll note the old drivers so its happening with all driver versions. 

so i guess all thats left is the HDD, PSU, and the board.

Try what @Carbonic posted and do a full uninstall of your old drivers.  Also, make sure you are downloading the correct drivers, because you stated you have an R9 280x, but your screenshots show you have a HD 7970, so you seem to not know exactly what is in your PC.

And yes, if your PSU is old, it could be that as well.

@2042suxsh1t you have a completely different problem, one that probably is there because you use drivers that are 2 years old.
