Overture causes PC to restart!? - GothicFighter - 06-04-2010

Hi there. I've installed Penumbra Overture from the Penumbra Collection, applied the 1.0.3 patch and started the game. I went to options to modify the settings and when I exited the game so the settings would apply, the PC restarted. I've ignored this and played the game for a while. After pressing exit the PC restarted again. I really want to play this game cuz' it looks awesome. Here are my specs:
AMD Phenom II X2 555 BE unlocked to X3
Gigabyte ATI HD 5770, 1GB
2GB DDR3 Kingston HyperX, 1333Mhz
MA785GT-UD3H
Delux PSU, 500W

Please help me if you can.
Cheers!

You should not apply the 1.0.3 overture patch on the collection, it is already up to date.

I suggest that you reinstall and that you delete the settings.cfg file in My Documents/Penumbra Overture/Episode1/

Not working. Anyway, I've found a work-around. Instead of pressing exit to quit the game I close it from Task Manager. Thanks anyway.
Actually, the games exits fine nowBlush This is weird.
