Instant BSOD at Intro Cutscene
Hi,I just installed (and reinstalled) the game on Steam and right as the first intro cutscene starts there is between 1 and 10 seconds before the sound starts to loop, the screen goes dark, i notice that my top fans stop spinning on the chassi and if i don't reset the PC then it resets itself. It resets itself twice and once it got stuck on the BIOS screen so I had to manually reset it again.I have tried with the newest Nvidia drivers 352.86 and also older nvidia drivers 350.12, 347.52 but the problem remains. I have had no issues with no other games what so ever on this PC and I play a lot of games. I made clean installs on the drivers with full profile removal. I have run a SFC /Scannow and it found some errors that should be fixed now.I sometimes game on a BenQ 1070+W Projector connected to HDMI to my PC and use a USB hub with keyboard and mouse connected to the PC but i have disconnected the USB hub and disabled the projector in Nvidia Control panel.Specs are:Gigabyte GA-X99-UD4Samsung SSD EVO 850-Series 500GBIntel i7 5820K 3,3 GHz 15MBCooler Master Hyper 212 EVOZOTAC GeForce GTX 980 AMP!

This error could be caused if the system stopped responding, crashed, or lost power unexpectedly.The previous system shutdown at 02:44:33 on 2015-05-19 was unexpected.
