| Vista home premium 64 bit | I would put it down to the graphics card. The cpu is good enough. Just as a matter of course though look at your windows error logs to find the specific error, there may be a work around. Left Click on Start Menu. Right click on Computer and choose manage. Click on the event viewer. You now have loads of options to try and pin down what is happening. Expand the error tab. Look for things in the last 24 hours. |
