My computer keeps crashing after adding a new video card?

I recently upgraded my pc's video card and my pc crashes when I play a video game for maybe less than an hour. After my pc boots up and I log in Windows shows and error report window, the one that let's you send the report to Microsoft. It says something about the video card's driver.



My pc specs:

Windows XP Pro SP 2

Pentium 4 2.4 GHz

1 gig RAM

GeForce 7300 GT 512mb agp (new video card)

80 gig hdd space|||Make sure that you have the latest drivers for you new Video card and the latest update from microsoft that could include a fix for any possible known bugs. Another possibility is that your Power Supply could be locking power to support your new Video card or that your CPU is overheating causing it to shut down. But if your pc is saying something about drivers, I would start with that first.|||I have little solution for some errors.It fixed also mouse error.

Right click to game exe or short cut.

select properties.

go to compatibility.

In win 7 or vista. on compatibility mode.

select windows xp sp2

In xp select windows 2000

and ok



play game.

|||remove any nvidia vid drivers only. ya prob need updated drivers or ya have 2 diff types running

goto nvidia drivers and remove video drivers only because ya may have nvidia chipset drivers ya wanna keep. then goto nvidia they have a section that finds the drivers ya need for ya.otherwise your power supply is too weak to run your new card good luck.|||go to this site and download latest drivers for your card.....i had that problem last week, updated to new driver and problem fixed.......if that does not work, your psu maybe underpowered, or the vid card is getting hot, and shutting down your pc.......next time gaming monitor your temps, heres a very good one, free........scott
