Random Restarts in the middle of games

I built a gaming rig a couple months back and it has been running like a champ until last night when I started playing COD 4 and it would just randomly restart itself in the middle of the game. I got the temp monitoring apps in the second monitor and went to play again to see if it was the temperatures. The CPU did not get over 67c or so and the graphics card not over 70c. But it still restarted about 20 minutes into the game. I continued to check temps and edit fan speeds and it kept restarting mid game. Then because I thought it still might be heat I underclocked the gpu and tried again. This time it lasted much longer but still conked out after 40 min. I think it might be a psu issue but I'm not sure. Any help is greatly appreciated

It's a game that was created in 2007, it's recommended for Xp and Vista x32 so I assume your OS is Windows 7 x64 and it could be that some sort of issue with compatibility.

Try the resolution at a lower level, say about 1024 x 768, or 1440 x 900.
