new PC problems

hey guys, i just got a new PC, a dell dimension 3100, and when i started playing guild wars, it was fine for about 5-10 minutes, and then the screen goes blue, and i have an error message, and it says dumping physical memory. any suggestions?

How much Video and Computer ram do you have?

It also helps to have GW as the only running program in the background.

PC Specs...

Graphics Card, Processor, RAM, etc etc etc.

i went to the store and they told me to update drivers, but i dont know which drivers i need to download. josh, do you know the address of one of those benchmark programs? fear the destroyer helped me before and told me a site, but i forget it. then i can get you the stuff u want too.

Start
Run
dxdiag
OK

Specs should be there, then if you go on the Display tab, you'll get your Graphics card information as well.

If you've got MSN, pm me it and I can help you out faster.

pm me your msn, that'll work much better

Update ALL drivers, since you have a dell you should be able to go to their website and get the drivers you need. Then again it's an OEM and OEMs do their best to hide as much information as possible from you.

For one the Dell Dim 3XXX series has no video card slot. Going to their website putting in your TAG number will bring up what you would need for updates. Dell is good for this. You might want to look at a regular PCI (not PCIe) video card.

He's got it fixed as far as I know now, he's played for a while without errors.

Intel Extreme Graphics driver issue?

Yeah it was his graphics driver.
