Game crashes

when i just got two new games for my comp Halo and max
payne 2 they installed fine but when i try to play them
the screen goes black for a few seconds and then the
computer restarts i have updated the lastest graphics
drivers and i just dont get why this would happen
..

Hi Tyler,

Your system is most likely restarting as a result of a STOP error.

To stop this behavior go to Control Panel / System / Advanced /
Click the Startup and Recovery Settings button / Uncheck the box
labelled "Automatically restart" under the System Failure section.

To analyse the error, try the steps in: http://aumha.org/win5/kbestop.htm

If the error indicates a file name that begins with ati, or nv (nVidia)
the most likely solution would be to install the latest drivers using
the instructions at: http://mvps.org/nibblesnbits/Video.html#drivers

Hi Tyler,

Try installing Rad Tools from Bink which includes the Codecs that
those games are using. There's a good change it will resolve the
issue. If not, let me know and we'll examine your video drivers.

Hi Tyler,

If those are just intro movies, locate them in the game's
folder and rename them to see if you can workaround
the issue and get the game started so you can play it. :-)

ok i rnamed all of the movie files and for halo its the
same just gets to the screen that says halo then freezes.
doesnt restart now cuz i made it not restart on errors and
for max payne the screen is just blank but i dont hear any
