XP Pro Crashing

Recommended Posts

I just recently puchased a new celeron 2.4GHz computer w/o 256mb/ram and, ofcourse, a sis 661fx video card ;( . It runs older games desently, but the newer games, like Unreal Tournament 2004 and even Command and Conquer: Renegade crash the computer. The screen will lock up and the sound will loop.

It freezes so bad that I'm forced to pull the plug on the computer. Then it loads up with a message saying that "Windows(XP Pro) has recovered from a serious error due to the video driver."

Since I was planning to upgrade the video card from the start, should I buy a new video card, or will I still have the same probem?

Hi there, i have the same problem where my computer reboots and displays the message 'your system has recovered from a serious error'. This usually...... always happens when i play games and sometimes with other things im doing.

Im not sure why i thought to do it but unplugged my modem and disabled norton antivirus and everything was sweet, no crashes or reboots.

When i finished playing the game and enabled norton again it immediatly reboots.

Does this mean anything?

Is it something thing to do with blocking or something amazingly sinister where we can write novels about it in the hopes of it being made into a movie?

This problem only happened after i installed a Geforce fx5200 graphics card.
