Your GPU could be the problem.. What graphics card do you have?

Edit- The video memory could be exceeded, which causes an error to shut down the game and display the "reboot message".

It's because of the GPU. It's too old and maybe doesn't support that much software.
The RAM should also be at least 4 gigs

Edit- Your PC is old as hell. My advice is buying a new one(You can get a good one for circa 6-700 bucks. or if you want to, build a new one. That's the two best things to do.
You don't want to waste time replacing stuff in your current PC.
 
And when you're getting a new GPU, my advice is buying one with 1 gig memory, then you won't get any errors, in most cases
