my new build, a p4 3.2 ghz on a 2004-RZ Gigabyte motherboard, 512 ram, 256mb Geforce 6800 Ultra. I just installed windows Xp Home and now whenever I try to play a game, it almost immediately quits. Every now and then the blue screen comes for a fraction of a second, but the computer reboots. I have checked the BIOS settings and have found nothing that I deem suspicious. Help? Please? Thanks very much.

recheck graphic card drivers for updates

i feel stupid. thanks very much. worked a treat.

no problems just as a matter of fact how did you find buillding your own pc as this is something i am thinking of doing

it was fine actually, and myself Im not particularly knowledgeable with them. of course when problems hapen this site is a miracle but it tends to be fine. and having plenty of money from overly generous parents helps aswell! the graphics card wouldve taken years to afford otherwise! but it tends to b ok, the hardest thing ive had trouble with is installing windows, thats where things always seem to go wrong.
