    Exclamation EVE online help!

    I just downloaded eve and made a trial account. Did the patches and was ready to play. (noted i have to turn all the graphic settings to low due to my computer, but i still meet the minimum requirements) When i log in and go to make my first charcter im met with a race selection thing. When i click on one my computer automatically shuts down and re-starts.

    Does anyone know whats happening and how to fix it?

    It could be that your driver could not handle it, therefor not even letting your display working, causing it to resetart itself, but I am just spitballing. Also, EVE doesn't have good gfx.. meh.. how old is your computer?

    Disable automatic restart:
    XP
    vista
    Win7

    Than when it happens you normally should get a blue screen of death, note down the error code (STOP: 0x0000....) and message (the one on top, eg PAGE_FAULT_IN_NONPAGED_AREA) and post it here.

    This should be in tech section by the way.

    I should update this but all my effort went into writing this lousy excuse.

    Eve doesn't have good gfx! when was the last time you played it or are you being sarcastic?

    Also make sure you gfx card supports shaders 2.0 and disable auto restart on errors like suggested.

    Seriously .. you haven't played EVE the last year.

    The last free expansion "Dominion" updated the engine for DX10 graphics. (one of many graphic engine updates)

    Take a look for yourself http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Expansions_of_Eve_Online

    Dominion was the 12th free "major content" update expansion.
