Computer restarts

My computer is having occasional problems. It restarts itself. Always at the same point though. Right when I start up TFC.

It only happens at once in a while. I think it is video related and not TFC related. But thanks for the suggestion.

I had the same problem but it was my sound card. Like Swift I updated drivers.

Both my sound and video drivers are up to date. I have tried two different sound cards and it still occurs. (and before anyone asks, no I did not waste my money on a new card, it was time for an upgrade from an SB16 card.)
