Well, for me, here is what he is trying to say.. Whenever a game would load, or an application, it automatically freezes, and the only way to solve that problem is to manually restart or reboot the computer for the system unit itself. I too, have experienced, this and have noticed that my graphics card did not meet the game requirements..

To Roman_gertz: Thank you for answering the question of the previous commentator.. I was wondering the same way that he or she was doing. I still have some queries about the subject because I replaced the video card and still my computer is still the same.

If that's the case, then just bring it to a technician.. It is better to have an expert look at that, rather than just try to fix it yourself..

Hmm, any updates on this one? I believe there are new drivers today - also, perhaps it might not be the driver itself.. The hardware might be malfunctioning..
