1) All your hardware has Vista Drivers for the Home P. edition ?
2) Are you using the right driver for the NVIDIA card ?
3) Try leaving 1 stick of RAM, just live 2GB or 1Gb as a try
4) Try without your sound card

I would try this things just as a start...

bump, anyone know

yes the drivers for vista are available
when you post your specs always include the psu details,the specs are not much use without them

MrNemesis666 · 08-06-2007, 05:36 AM

it was my sound card, and my psu is 800w, can u post a link to the drivers plz, thank you

Oceanborn · 08-06-2007, 10:12 AM

you posted your specs and it reads....
"NVIDIA GeForce 7300 GS (Microsoft Corporation - WDDM)"
which uses a "Microsoft Generic" driver and not the official Nvidia one...
go to www.nvidia.com and download the latest drivers for your video card
