    First off this is the definitive Maple Story FAQ:

    http://www.sleepywood.net/forum/showthread.php?t=677572

    Your issue is not directly addressed there but if it is rebooting your computer it is most likely a hardware issue.

    I would suggest reinstalling Maple Story and perhaps uninstalling and reinstalling your Graphics Drivers.

    Also see if you have any coincidental errors in your Event Viewer.

    Go to the above link and read the material under:

    [3.1.1] "Failed in finding proper screen mode for Gr2D"


    Both ATI and nVidia have uninstallation/installation instructions on their web sites.

    Then try reinstalling the Intel drivers.

    Does your computer have any other problems?

    I am surprised that MS ran on an Intel chip but if it did... ok.

    That means you have no graphics card per se but only a motherboard chip (Intel).

    Also as mentioned try reinstalling MS.

    Did you check the Event Viewer?

    Look for errors under System or Application that might coincide with a shutdown.

    Again if the computer just powered off there probably won't be anything but it is worth a look.

    1: You said Maple Story was working on this computer till a couple days ago: correct?

    2: If so was anything added or changed from when it worked till when it didn't? Do you have any other problems?

    3: If no I would first off uninstall then reinstall Maple Story. You can uninstall via start > Control Panel > Add or Remove Programs.

    4: If that doesn't help then note the time of a shutdown re: Maple Story and then post back the errors for that time in the Event Viewer.

    5: What is the make and model of the computer?

    6: You said your graphics was Intel. Do you know this from the motherboard or the computer manufacturer?
