I don't know why, but my computer has rebooted two different times when I exit Halo. Not while I am playing, but when I exit the game to go back to the desktop. Anybody else have this problem or know of a solution? Microsoft blames it on the video card (6600 GT) in their error report.

What version of halo do you have and what drivers for the video card do you have? Its happend to me before in a few games, the game will freeze up when i exit out and then the computer just turns off and restarts. Update your Drivers and see what happens.

I have Halo V.1.0.7.613 and have nVidia ForceWare V.77.72 (it's old I know). I am about to update the drivers to V.81.98 and hopefully that will stop my computer from restarting when I exit the game. Could it have anything to do with screen resolutions?
