Win 7 won't Blue Screen, just reboots

This is a problem inside a problem, original issue in game forum (Machine losing power in specific games.)

I'm on several forums and so far cannot identify why i'm having this problem, so someone suggested forcing Windows to bluescreen instead of reboot upon error. I've set it to in the advanced system settings, and in the advanced boot options, but when I crash, my machine reboots.

So two questions:

1. Is there anyway you know of to fix this, or why it might be happening?
2. Is there anyway to access the information the BSOD would normally provide?
