Some specs of your computer might help out :)
Things like processor, ram, graphics card (if applicable) operating system etc

What happens when your computer "crashes"?  Does the whole system lock up?  Does the game close?  You might try running some stress testing tools like prime95 to make sure you don't have bad memory or other issues.

The whole System locks up. And the Problem is, that i can play games like Call of Duty with much higher system requirements. And if i play call of duty the computer don't crash.

Well.. Check your drivers. Run opengl specific tests. Most modern games default to a Direct3D rendersystem for rendering, whereas dp uses OpenGL. nVidia typically has very good opengl support though.

Try enabling rsync (set gl_swapinterval 1 at the console).

Hey guys,
thanks for your help, i detected the Problem.
It was too much dust between Processor and Ventilation, so the Computer always crashes.
