Sometimes while I play KH1 on PCSX2, my PC suddenly reboots (haven't tried with other games yet). it's a full reboot, i have to sign in again to windows. It seems to happen only in cutscenes, for example it happened 3 times in the cutscene before fighting the head of the tiger at Agrabah and once after beating Cerberus, and seems to happen only on hardware mode with 5x or higher resolution. Could it be a GPU overheat? CPU is never hotter than 45°C.
CPU: Intel i7 4770 @3.40 Ghz
RAM: 8GB DDR3
GPU: Palit GTX 770 2GB
OS: Windows 8 x64

uncheck "automatic restart" in the startup and recovery
(open charms bar-->settings-->PC info-->system protection-->advanced tab)
other symptoms can be like the mobo drivers

Another possibility is that your power supply is going out, or is too low of a wattage for what you have. If your power supply can't keep your components fed with enough power, it can cause errors, random shut offs, and random restarts.
Did you upgrade your PC components lately? Or is this a new build/PSU?

No it is a new build. My PSU is an Intertech 700W, it should be enough for my system.
PS: I've noticed that reboots occur only on fullscreen mode.

The amperage is 25A on 12V line. I've just seen a new nvidia driver update, i'll try it.
