Magic crashed on XP

Hi, I FINALLY got Duel of the Planeswalkers to work on XP with the original CD and the unofficial 1. 3. 2 patch. It will play just fine and then the whole computer crashes like the plug was pulled.

Never seen that bug (applied to MtG). Maybe solution in the hardware? If there was _nothing_ before computer shuts down, I'll suggest BIOS->shutdown temperature (that means, it's too hot in your area or simply cooler fault). Did your machine have temperatures displayed on display when it's booting? Press pause key and look on them. Any temperature higher than 50C means almost definitely cooler fault, and if so, problem is in that for sure.
 
P.S. BTW, if you encounter "invisible text" (when card buying, for example, must be string "Do you want buy this card for XXX? (Y/N)". If you see that, you haven't this problem), than go to Nils Devine page (mentioned in the another forum - solution is there.

Thanks for the reply.....I have not had any trouble with my PC...certainly nothing else has caused the Crash of Death... It was a tease to play those few duels again, but I cant handle the crashes...
