Sauerkraut12,

It's a Windows error and a pretty common one at that. I suggest using Google and searching on "BCCode: 116" to see a multitude of articles discussing it. Be very careful NOT to download any "fixes" that are offered as they're usually malware. Most solutions seem to be video driver-related so I'd take that approach first in making sure your drivers are up to date.

Machines shutting down could also be a symptom of something inside overheating, like the video card or processor.

To check that, download and run HWMonitor from: http://www.cpuid.com/downloads/hwmonitor/1.21-setup.exe

Now start the game and let it run several minutes. Then exit or alt-tab out and see what the highest temperature is that was reached for both the cpu and gpu (video card).

Sauerkraut12,

It looks like your video card is reaching 89C which is a little hot, maybe too hot and it might be causing the issue you're having.

I'd unplug the computer, open it up, and using a can of compressed air, clean out the video card's fan and heatsink assembly. That's often all it takes to restore proper cooling to it.
