Every time I play a certain game on my pc is reboots
saying that a device driver caused the problem.
Any idea how I can find which driver it is and sort it?

Two items.

For Brian, it sounds like your chipset drivers or LAN card drivers
were/are causing the problem. Check with your motherboard manufacturer
and find out what chipset is on your computer. Make sure you have the
most recent chipset drivers.

For original message, it sounds like you have a video card driver
problem. Have you tried the latest drivers for your video card? Go to
www.ati.com or www.nvidia.com or whoever makes your card and download
the latest drivers. Also, you may have DirectX problems, but we'll deal
with that if the drivers don't work Wink

if you move the mouse/use the keyboard the pc goes to
start up again the same way it does when it hasn't been
used for an hour or so but then just powers down again.

Hmm, two more things Smile

First, check your power settings. Click Start-Control Panel-Power
Settings and see if you have the computer set to standby or hibernate
after a period of time or if you have turn off harddisk after a period
of time. Instead, set the setting to Presentation and click OK.

Second, you can try installing the latest version of DirectX (or update
it). www.microsoft.com/directx
