system restarting
Hi...It is a P3 850Mhz system with WinXP installed on it.
Sometimes the system suddenly gets hanged up and then restarts itself.
After restarting it gives an error msg stating ' The Display Drivers failed to
complete the drawing operation,Pls contact your manufacturer for driver
update'.
I have tried by re installing the drivers and also updating them..but in
vain..I am really confused .
Pls Help.

what program are you using when this happens? Word?
how have you tried updating drivers? have you checked windows update?
what is the make & model of your graphics card?
also change this setting to get more detailed error mesages:
You can turn off the feature that instructs XP to autostart on system
failure. Right click on My Computer and select Properties->Advanced
Tab->Startup & Recovery section->Settings button->uncheck "Automatically
restart" Apply. This will give you a blue screen with info on it and you
will have to manually restart the computer. The info might give you an idea
whether or not the problem is hardware or software related.
