Hi everyone,

This problem has been giving me a huge headache! My computer specs are all supposedly good enough to run sins but when I run it, it completely shuts down my computer after about 5-10 minutes; just turns off the power. I have no idea what's wrong or how to fix it...also, itunes visualizer causes the same problem if that provieds any hints.

Thanks in advance!

Have you ran our anti-virus to check for threats, trojans or viruses that could have infected your PC?

Unfortunately there are many problems that could cause this and it might not be the game itself. Try shutting down some of the background programs that you may have running such as Itunes, messenger etc.

sins wont run on my comp the screen just stays black but wont load any ideas/
