Desktop turns off completely when launching Diablo 3 - jcallies - 03-19-2015
My recently purchased ABS Dreadnaught (http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16883102038) keeps turning off when I launch D3. I installed all of the updates for windows 8.1, and followed all of the technical advice from Battle.net support (reverting my NVIDIA driver to 347.52), but it still shuts down completely. Would really appreciate some help, here. Is this a common issue? The desktop is powerful enough to run all the new games, so why is this an issue with Diablo 3? I can get as far as "retrieving character list" before it shuts down.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
