    At what point do you get the error? On install? On bootup? After windows loads up?

    After windows is loaded, and its also sparatic, it does it more when running something that puts a load on the system.

    A few more questions for you, the more we know the easier it is to help.

    Have you checked Device Manager to see if anything is indicated as a problem component(s) - items flagged with yellow question marks or red "X"s?

    Are you running movies or video editing applications, when this occurs?

    No, there are no problems in the device manager.. The program that it STOPS: on the most is when running Second Life.. It has also crashed while browsing the web, and checking yahoo email, but thats rare..

    If your problems started after you joined Second Life.

    It is quite possible that your graphic's card is just not powerful enough, for the Second Life environment.

    Please have a look here to check out the minimum specs,
