Make sure you have your graphic card's drivers updated to the latest version released, adjust your display settings / advanced to full performance, lower your game settings to minimum resolution, texture filtering, anti-aliasing, and disable all effects. If this doesn't fix it, tell us what are your system stats etc, so we can figure out what can be the problem ;)

From one of the sticky threads:

Q: I start the game, then ... my computer reboots
A: The rebooting is a feature of Windows in case of an error. It has the nasty effect that when you encounter the error you have no way of finding out what actually caused the error because Windows reboots.

You can turn that reboot nonsense off.

1. From the desktop right-click on My Computer.
2. Click the Properties option.
3. In the System Properties window click the Advanced tab.
4. In Advanced click the Settings button under Startup and Recovery.
5. In the Startup and Recovery window uncheck the Automatically restart check box.
6. Click Ok.

Also, please post the results of your DXDiagnostics. If you do not know how, please check out the sticky thread with the title "Tomb Raider : Underworld FAQ - Read this first!"

Hi,
I have the same problem what davidcaveira described. But I just bought a new graphic card today only to play this game. All other games of lara playing well.
I bought a ASUS EN9600 GT TOP/512Mb/ NVIDIA with the latest driver but the PC reboot when I want to play UnderWorld.
Witch setting must I ajust to play the game?:wave:

Even though your other Tomb raider games run,Underworld does work your GFX card hard
There are many things that can make a PC reboot,what system are you using,things like not having a beefy enough power supply canbe a cause,and as you just bought a new GFX card,it could be that,over heating is another cause,This may not be the cause but it worth a look,list your PC stats and this might help,so we can see,and if you need to know what power supply you have it willbe written on a label near pwer socket on rear of PC :

Thirst of all thanks for your response. I have a Asus P5LD2 motherboard and running on a Intel(R) Pentium(R) D CPU 3.00GHz (2 CPUs) processor. Internal memory is 2 Gbyte. My power supply has 400 Watt power. The “Old” card was a ASUS EN7300GS and was to slow For playing games. The new card ASUS EN9600 is a perfect card and all other games play very well only Underworld will crashes my PC (blue screen and reboot). By the way Underworld also crashes the PC with the old card.
I have looked for the newest drivers on NVIDIA and installed them but it didn’t help at all.
Its looks like that Windows crashes and not the PC-hardware. Maybe is my soundcard the problem because its onboard and not DirectX9c compatible??
