Hey gents i just recieved Neverwinter nights 2 for the PC this morning. Yay christmass. Moving on, after installing it about 7 times i finally started to play. However ive run into an unexpected error. About 7-10 mins into the game no matter what my computer shuts down. The game minimizes/exits, i get booted to a blue screen that says logging off, then the computer shuts down. I can run other games (Doom3, TF,CS, CS:S, witcher, ect.) with no problem but for some reason my computer simply shuts down after about 8mins of play.

The problem is your video card you have 9600 while the minimum required is 9700 so the game has its issues not accepting your card although you have all the minimum requirments like the video memory and pixel shader,try upgrading your video driver from
