Okay, so. I think I can answer your question. I got Far Cry 3 for christmas, and a new graphics card, and found out I didn't have enough energy output to run it on full graphics. You may need another power source OR like me your hard drive is on the fritz and has to be replaced. If it keeps happening, go to your local best buy and consult a geeksquad employee.
"F" the Geek Squad, even I know that they are over-charging monkeys. Trust DABhand, he will not let you down. He has helped out a lot of other people in these forums, and charges nothing for it. Let us know your results, because that is the only way other members can benefit. When people fail to share their results the problem just appears unsolved.
