Dude, it wasn't even five hours. And don't bump your own topic when it's right there on the first page. Next time it's a warning.

There could be a problem with overheating, but this doesn't seem to fit your description. There could also be a loop that causes the crash, or there could be a hardware related short.

Computers have settings that force a shutdown to prevent damage to your computer, which make me think overheating or an eternal looping error. (both of which I have experienced first hand)

Try running the program in compatibility mode for an older operating system, that might fix it.

Ya check if your fan is running when you turn on your computer. My fan died and my computer would shut down just after starting SWBF2.
