Hi!I have ATI Radeon HD 3400 Series (2GB Ram, Pentium R Dual Core CPU E5200 @
2.5GHz , Vista SP2, 32 bit operating system. i dont know if thats important). The last few months my computer has been crashing when i watch videos or play solitaire, but not everytime except solitaire. It freezes, then green squares are everywhere,
then it goes black and comes back on. I have updated everything as much as i can, i have cleaned everything as much as i can. It doesnt crash when i play proper games like mass effect, and that seems to work fine.DescriptionA problem with your video hardware caused Windows to stop working correctly.Problem signatureProblem Event Name: LiveKernelEventOS Version: 6.0.6002.2.2.0.768.2Locale ID: 2057Files that help describe the problemWD-20121231-1008.dmpsysdata.xmlVersion.txt View a temporary copy of these filesWarning: If a virus or other security threat caused the problem, opening a copy of the files could harm your computer.Extra information about the problemBCCode: 117BCP1: 87BB1510BCP2: 8AEB3D68BCP3: 00000000BCP4: 00000000OS Version: 6_0_6002Service Pack: 2_0Product: 768_1Do you think it is because i have low Ram? I have looked up about it, most people just say to make sure things are up to date, but im OCD about making sure things are up to date now, and it hasnt helped one bit. Im nervous of uninstalling anything. Ive forgotten
what it is called, but i also did the check to see if files were corrupt. Mainly i dont understand why it is doing it. Please could you help. I know nothing about computers and i dont want to make things worse. Ill appreciate any help, thank you :o)
