For those using HP/Compaq notebooks with 965 Express chipset

After days of searching the net trying to find a solution for this
horrible problem I came to a conclusion, no one had a definate answer,
some of the "solutions" which I've seen either did nothing or made it
worse for my particular setup.

One thing which had made my system worse was removing one the RAM
sticks, but this also lead to my solution, so unfortuntley if you only
process one stick of RAM in your system then I am not positive that this
shall work.

1, remove the B side RAM stick from your system and reboot

2, On start up you shall be greeted by the configuration change, this
is showing that your laptop has recgonised the change in system memory.


3, Press F1 prompting that you accept the changes, this will start up
your system as normal.

3, As soon as its got back to the GUI shut down your computer once
again.

4, Replace the RAM which you removed earlier and reboot.

5, Once again your system will recongise the change in system memory,
this time though you want to press F10, prompting you wish to change
system setting

6, You should now see your normal system setup, scroll down to restore
system defaults, save changes and exit, this will boot up your system as
normal.

This is the solution for all HP/Compaq users with the 965 Express
chipset, also if your problem is while playing WOW then also change your
game resolution to match your computers, lower the graphics parameters
and I also found it ran better in Windowed Mode.

Disclaimer - I am but a messanger, if you have no prior experience in
removing RAM and using system setup then do not attempt this procedure,
phone a friend or something. I take no responsibility for your actions
or the damage which you cause your computer! You have been warned!

Hi guys

I have the same problem too. I run the file sigverif.exe and only one
came up
dsproct.sys...can I remove this,and if so how - would it stop my
problem ?

Been everywhere trying to find a solution, have tried to download
display drivers from the Dell site, put in my exact model and came up
with the error 'computer does not meet minimum requirements for
installing software' ! how that works I've no idea

I have Dell Vostro 200 (slim tower) - intel(R) G33/G31 Express chipset
family and get the "igfx display driver" error message after playing
sims3 for while, screen goes black on and off then game play continues
but goes very dark, few times its crashed too.
I have sims2 which runs perfectly and have only noticed this problem
after installing sims3

Someone suggested playing game in windows xp mode, how do I try to do
this ?

Any help would be greatly appreciated as I'm at my wits end

Think I've found the problem

did a system requirements analysis test and I failed

Need at least CPU Speed of 2.4 ghz and I have 2.33

so there ya go - looks like I'm gonna have to fork out fer a new
computer unless someone out there can perform a miracle ?

Think thats how mine got sorted - hopefully sorted, no crashes fer a
good few hours

I used the system requirements analysis 'Can you run it'

http://www.systemrequirementslab.com/referrer/srtest

said that I failed and that mt CPU speed was too slow (minimum 2.4
ghz, I've got 2.33 ghz) but it also suggests other downloads that may
help so I downloaded newest direct x thingy and seems to be workin fine
even tho its not supposed to ??

Go figure, but I aint complaining, long may it last

I am also having the same problem. I have an HP Pavillion DV6000, running Windows Vista Home Premium 32bit. Whenever I am in an instance or anything on World of Warcraft, the screen constantly blacks out, sometimes even freezes. Any ideas on how I can fix this
