System crash when running SWTOR with wine.

English Games

While running “Star Wars: The Old Republic” under wine, at some point during the game–usually 15 to 20 minutes in–my computer crashes hard. It shuts off!

I don’t think wine can cause my machine to do this so I suspect a hardware problem. Are there any useful logs I can look at after startup that might give me a hint as to what might be causing the crash.

Thanks!

Specs:

  • graphics: NVidia GeForce GTX 560 (driver 340.96)
  • wine: version 1.9.4
  • motherboard: Gigabyte GA-990FXA-UD3
  • memory: 16G

I’ve playing WOW and Diablo3 for years without any issues, although it has a been a month or so before I last played them.

In any case, I’ll clean out my case just to eliminate heating as a cause. I’ll also play Diablo3 for a bit as well…

Thanks.
