Disable embedded Video
by: Support

Hello Lorence,

First your video card may need new drivers, you should be able to download them from Nvidia.

Second your video card may need to be replaced to play some of the newer games, 256 meg of ram on the video card may not be enough.

Third you can not remove the 'embedded' video on the motherboard but you can disable it thorugh the BIOS, you will need the key press to get in to the BIOS from the manufacture or it will be on the splash screen when the computer starts.

Once you have disabled the embedded video and updated the drivers if the computer restarts when it is under heavy load then I would think that the video is being overloaded and overheating thus causing the computer to restart.

Hope this helps...
