Hi there,
Two years ago I've upgraded my PC, from a 300MHZ celeron to a brand new P4 - 1.6 GHZ, I changed my case, processor, mb, memory, vga card, cdrom, and other minor changes but since I got all that stuff my pc hangs with blue screens or my games crashes at any time.
Windows XP reports that it could be a driver problem. SO, I've updated all my drivers and software (including WinXP SP1 and all Windows Update stuff) and even my BIOS and the problem still there.
Also, sometimes reports that there is a problem with my memory (2 dimms pc133 - 256mb, 512mb total memory) wich indicates that the memory could not be "read"/"write" and it suggests me to get the "windows memory diagnostic tool" to identify memory problems, I ran all tests and it couldn't find any problem.
When playing Warcraft III also says that the memory could not be read/write and in theris forums says that some people has solved this problem changing their RAM. So, I thought it was a memory problem but now I place my memory in another computer and it didn't crashed, not even once!!! In facth, this is the computer. So, if it is not my memory, what else could it be???? I really need to solve this problem, and right now I don't have a real explanation...if it's not my memory or my vga card, or my drivers, or my OS, what else could be wrong?
ohh, by the way, I also installed win2000 in case that it were an OS problem but it is the same.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
These are my pc especifications:
INTEL 845HV MB - BIOS version p15
INTEL P4 - 1.6GHZ processor
2 dims PC133 - 256MB
GeForce MX 440 - Nvidia 52.13
Windows XP SP1/Windows 2000 SP4

I know this is a large post, but I can't figure out that the problem is. Sorry for my english
