VXSE3 Reboots Compy

Yeah, I've recently upgraded my PC, decided to do some voxelling yet sadly the computer freezes then reboots by itself whenever I keep VXSE3 open for a bit. Just a random guess but maybe it has to do something with the framerate going up to ludicrous levels? Wouldn't know but it's annoying either way.

you're supposed to have vsync set to let let the application decide whether or not it is active.
second, even if i turn it off, it doesnt reboot.

Core2Duo @ 420x8=3360MHz
GeForce 8800GTX 575/1800MHz (stock)
Windows Vista.

obviously, framerates arent the problem, as they go over 2000 no problems.

For those who have VXLSE III rebooting the system, test your machine with other programs that uses your video graphics card intensively, like C&C3. If these programs are rebooting your system, then the problem is that your video card might be dirty and not a fault from VXLSE III.

This is my personal experience on september, 2007.

VXLSE III intensively uses your graphics card, because it tries to render everytime your cpu is inactive (which is 99.9% of the time). So, it explodes your cpu usage when running, unless you have vsync (on your video settings) on.

I run UT3 fine tbh. No rebooting when I play high graphics games, even on X3:Reunion too.
