Hello.

When the program doesn't crash but the computer just shuts down it is highly unlikely that the program caused the issue. Every such incident I came across was caused by device drivers that acted in a weird way under some circumstances. Only device drivers can cause a modern operating system to fail.

Since you use your laptop for gaming chances are you set up the graphics drivers to improve visual quality or performance in other games. If that is the case try setting the drivers back to their defaults. And look for old device drivers, especially motherboard/chipset drivers, on your system.

I hope that helps you solving the issue.

And by the way, what is your native language? This is a multinational forum, so chances are there are people here who can help you describe your problem in english.

I'm german and as I see you are too.
I decreased the performance and that merely got me one lvl further.
I'm downloading the latest drivers and will recheck this again.
It can't be that all other games run nicely, can it?
Strange !
Please define what you mean by "level". And generally, improve the description of what happens. Does the computer turn off instantaniously, does it reboot, does it try to shut down normally ("herunterfahren"), do you get a blue screen with an error message, or something entirely different? When exactly did the issues happen? During one of the menues? During the loading screen for the campaign? While playing? If so, after how much time? I know you already made statements about that, but please try to be more precise.
That all will help to pin down the problem.
