Hello! Sometimes my system crashes with some video card error. That usually happens when I try to play some game. I get blue screen of dead with stop error message pointing my graphic adapter. After that I have to restart computer. My friend told me that this problem causes game, but it cannot be that all of games have some error. Right?

Hello! Yes, you right. There are two possibilities of these unexpected crashes: or your driver became corrupted and you need new one or your direct 3D graphic functions on your graphic card just died. To check what the problem is start directx checking software. If it fails on direct 3D tests, then your card is faulty.
