I've installed DoW2 to play some more like I did a few years back, but I've encountered this issue where my PC starts making noises unnatural for the computer.
If i had to describe it in words, it would resemble of scratching and squeaking at the same time.
I'm writing this in the general discussion because it has more opportunities to be seen by someone that can help me, since it looks like the support category isn't being supported.

Might be the Graphics card have you did a performance check and check your spec that all specs are compatible with the game recommended settings to run the game smoothly.
I had this issue with one of my older pc which did not sit well with the games specs to run and fuction smoothly it kept crashing so you might have to find a more compatible graphics and possible memmory card so you can save the game from crashing.
It was long time ago but im sure if You use the recommended or the max setting it should run more smoothly and give you experience your looking for without crashing.
It will crash if it does not sit well with your computer.

Definitely sounds like GPU or PSU issues. That sounds similar to the card not being installed properly, or it not having enough power. Check the case for dust, if both components are new and / or properly-connected.
