My PC powers down every time I try to burn the joker at the beginning, or acces the computer in the clock tower.

So at the beginning when you burn the Joker and you have to press something, he burns for maybe 1 second and then the PC just powers off then powers up again instantly. Happens every time at almost the exact same time without fail. Now I have a save file from playing it a bit from my previous PC and I got past the burning part, and actually got to play as batman. I fired that one up drove the batmobile, beat up some guys and then went to the clock tower. I opened up the statue but when I went to use the (bat)computer it crashed again. I tried again 3 times, same result. I have not found antyhing on PC shutting down because of this game. The graphics driver is updated, I turned down the graphics settings, I reinstalled the stuff in the common redist folder,
I reinstalled the game, nothing seems to work.


Specs are:
Radeon RX 480 Graphics
i7-3770
RAM 16 GB
OS: Windows 10

Maybe your power supply can't handle game in some moments?
Try lowering fps(max fps in settings) to 30.

I did and it worked, but what can be done? Where is the problem?

[MASTAN]

My assumption is that your PSU(power supply unit) cannot produce enough power. If so, changing PSU should help.
But it's only my assumption, could be something else.

Try running some stress tests, like Furmark. Check motherboard voltages(if available) with CPUID HWMonitor or similar utility without load and under load.

Aright so I tunred down my GPU a bit and that seemed to do it. FPS seems okay (for akrham knight). maybe it was overclocked for some reason?

something is clearly wrong with your hardware, and no, it's not necessarily a bad PSU. I'd probably guess something overheating. That's the most common reason for unexpected power off's.

[jontheoverlord]

could be specifically a GPU voltage distribution problem, something about that bit possibly causes you graphics card to work harder but without more power being sent to it to cope with it. Has this happened with any other games or doing anything else on your PC?? that's the important question. lock down the problem area by eliminating all false paths until the culprit is found. it might just be the game, it might just be your PSU, it might just be GPU, or it might be a mix.
I'm willing to bet it's the game. try windowed mode too, doing that has strange results with some games sometimes, it has an odd way of fixing or messing with bad PC ports with some PC hardware configs.

[John Wack]

Well it seems to work now even after turning the GPU back up, maybe the PC was just overheated at that time? I don't know but I hope it won't happen again
