Ive just got a new PC and bought Fligh sim 2004 with it, bu when i play about 10 minutes in it just restarts my computer i think my specs are fine:
1gb DDR ram
3.20GHZ
250gb
hmm weird. it kind of sounds like a virus or some type of trojan or spyware. what kind of virus protection do you have? if you have norton antivirus or another virus scanner run a full scan.
It can be what he said.
Tell us about your video card.
It sounds to me like the computer is overheating, very common.
The easiest way to find out is to remove the side from the case, point a desk fan at it and launch the flight sim.
If it doesn't crash you have a heat problem.
It's either too much dust in the fans, especially the CPU, or another fan should be added in the rear of the computer, very easy to do and very inexpensive $8-20 depending where you buy it.
Let us know how you do and keep that case clean.
