hmm only thing i can think of is, have you got a CPU temp gauge on your pc? because maybe you have the cable from the temp gauge right next to your CPU which may cause it to crash out...

other then that just try the general virus scans.

hope some of it helped, tell me how it went on if you tried any of them.

I had a problem like that awhile ago on my old computer. I would start up WoW sometimes it would last a few minutes, sometimes only until I log in. My computer restarts, when it comes back up it says Microsoft Error ( this was with Windows XP. ) I believed I fixed it by reformatting my whole computer over again.

Just to verify, Do you have your graphics cards latest drivers installed?

Well for the graphic card drivers you just need to basically go on the manufactures website and the drivers will be on there...

and if it does proceed to continue even if you had updated your drivers then try reinstalling wow, if that fails try reformatting your pc.

Find out first the manufacturer of the graphics card, usually on their site, they'll have a support link and you can search the site for up to date drivers. I would test it outside of WoW. Just for GP, I'd check the power settings on your PC, someone may have played a joke on you so that every 30 minutes your box shuts off.
