I just bought SINS, so I took it home and tried to install it, it got to about half way and my computer just shut down completely, like it had been unplugged, I tried installing it 2 more times and the same thing happened, can anyone help?

Sounds like a dying power-supply or some other hardware (mainboard) failure of some kind. Certainly not game-related.

As the DVD spins-up and down during install, it is drawing more power from the psu, if the psu is failing it is entirely possible to experience this type of behaviour.

thanks,

the Monk
