Take out your 1st stick of memory and try again.

If restarts, swap the memory and try again.

Its possible one of your sticks is faulty.

Did you at any time install a no-cd crack? I know I use a home made image for mine to run no cd and works fine. Does it work when you run it from the cd?

There no "NO CD" for this game, only mini images, that i try all of them and no help, the game keep restarting.

That was kinda my point. If you did install one , I would have said it was a bad file. So does it work with the original? If you install it and it does not work out of the box , you should contact the software's support. Even a no-cd or a mini image that you could make most likely would not fix your problem. Do you run any programs that force higher graphics, antialiasing ect? For I did have a problem with mine when I forced higher graphics setting via my video card's utils.

There no box ;) its from P... you know. but i am thinked about geting the origenal, but afraid i will got the same problem.

about G.card, no i dont forse High grafics, my old 9700 do the job well :)

its no hardaware or deiver problem, coze i updated all the drivers, and run all knowed test on my hardware (espasialy the RAM).
i think the problem my be in a game protection, BUT i never heard about protection that restarts your PC! :(

Lionhead will actually assist you with your No-CD needs. You just need a valid key and internet registration abilities.
