[QUOTE="chscag, post: 1626797, member: 46727"] Yes, it was enough. You had a GPU crash (graphics processor) see below: Your model MacBook Pro with dual graphics (NVIDIA GeForce GT 330M and Intel HD Graphics) is known to have problems with the NVIDIA GPU. It was the subject of an Apple recall and free repair, however, that is no longer in effect. What happened is when you ran that game it put stress on the GPU and caused the panic. It's probably going to happen over again whenever you run a graphics intensive program. Not much you can do about that without spending a bunch of money to change out the logic board. If there's an Apple store nearby your home, you might take it on in to them and have them run diagnostics on it. The diagnostics are free as long as you use an Apple store to do them. [/QUOTE]
