I think that you can close Origin once you have the game loaded. If you get in the game then go to your system tray & exit Origin it may solve your problem.
I know this is only a speculative work around, but might keep you going.
I guess ultimately it would be better to know the cause & cure it so you don't have to do work arounds.

If the computer is rebooting I would suspect a hardware or driver issue. Memory being number one on my list. Check the system logs for errors. Also make sure your PC is not overheating.

Ensure you are using the most up to date drivers as well.
You've got to ask yourself a question: Do I feel lucky? Well, do ya, punk?
