Game crashes so hard it restarts my computer

[kijid]

like the title says, i cant even get any degree into the game on the 3-4 hour mode. My crash file just says:
2025/01/14 00:16:52 INFO:: -------------------------------------------------------------
2025/01/14 00:16:52 INFO:: Starting, ver. 1.0.4, Steam kijid
i was hoping this was fixed but im still having the issue.
It isnt just a small crash to desktop either, it restarts my whole computer

If this is all that is in fatal.txt, then it is not a crash. Real crash writes a crashdump.
If your computer reboots, this is most likely hardware issue, like bad memory module or CPU overheating.
The game uses memory quite intensively, so bad memory module will show itself. I would recommend running memtest86 - https://www.memtest86.com/

Also please try monitoring your CPU temperatures. Once again, the game can load CPU quite a lot and if the thermals are not good (for example, the computer not cleaned/re-pasted for quite a while), this may cause CPU to overheat, but usually this comes with thermal throttling first.

wow! thanks for the in depth response, i will get around to doing those things later this week and let you know if it fixes any of those issues.
