Sounds like a virus. Does it go to a blue screen before restarting?

Yea it happened to me too, BSOD anyone have a solutiion? (And I scanned*for Viruses using Windows Live One Care) and Spyware (Spybot S&D) and Adware (Adaware SE) nothing came up.
I ran CCleaner after uninstalling the game so I could remove any registry problems and Now I gotta redownload the whole 800 meg file -__- if anyone knows what this problem that causes the BSOD's really is please help me!

Sounds like theres too many services running. Try closing some application in your task bar. For Example close Limewire, Kazza, or any downloading applications. Msn is a must too don't msn while you play Fiesta. Msn can slow down the Fiesta's performance.
*If your computer keeps restarting and theres a countdown restart. Looks like you got a virus.
Heres how to solve it.
Go to:
1. click on start
2. click on All Programs >
3. Go to Accessories
4. Look for System Restore.
5. Restore to a day where you have no viruses/trojans/spywares/etc. on your computer.
6. After all taht your computer will restart. (your Fiesta will be gone).
7. Update your Anti-virus program and all the other things. For example Norton Protection Center. Click on it and look for Live Update and it should update all the files about your anti-virus. Also for your windows. make sure your windows is up to date. Simply go to www.microsoft.com ("http://www.microsoft.com/") to update your computer. Look for Microsoft Update. <-- It's Free.
8. After all those updating. Redownload Fiesta and don't run any other programs while you download. Well you can still surf the Internet.
9. Have Fun
Make sure you computer can handle system Requirements. Go to this link..

Something in your computer may be overheating, I'm not sure though. Usually if your power supply dosen't have enough*power for your video card, processor, etc. your computer will*restart randomly. Do you get this problem on any other games?*I know when I bought my Nvidia 8600 I had to replace my old power supply with a 600watt one because when I would play a game*like Counter Strike Source for a long period of time my computer would restart for no reason at all.*You should only consider this is the problem if you have built your own computer or put a different video card, processor, or anything else in your computer other than the stock ones. Kaption is probably right though. I just thought I would add what I know. Hope you find the problem =)
