Re: Drivers not installing

god, i thought my problems were over but when i run a program that uses directX my computer just freezes causing me to reboot the computer which usually causes it to crash next time i reboot after it, so i have to reboot a second time then it works for usually 1 hr.

this just gets worse and i am quite desperate, and in need of some help.

im hoping this is easily fixed
