2. Re: Computer restarting under Photoshop CS6.
robertdatzoo Feb 1, 2015 1:11 AM (in response to Mylenium)Thanks Mylenium, will gather all relevant information and add to the post. PC is i7-3820 CPU, 3.6GHz, 12Gb DDR3 RAM, Win 8.1 64bit, V/Card is nVIDIA GTX-650 2Gb DDR5 RAM (plus 2Gb Shared?). This issue has only popped up in the last month or so, seemed to work without issue prior to that, not aware of any significant system updates.

D Fosse Feb 1, 2015 2:37 AM (in response to robertdatzoo)Random restarts are always caused by faulty hardware or buggy low-level drivers. Applications can't cause that - except indirectly by calling specific functions in specific drivers.
So if Photoshop seems to trigger it, the obvious candidate is the video driver. Maybe you got a buggy update through Windows Update. I'd try to go to the GPU vendor's site and either try the latest update, or possibly roll back to an earlier.
