Hello sumeetbapu,

Here are 2 suggestions which might be helpful in determining the cause of the nmi error:

• 1. Use the Windows Memory Diagnostic tool to test the RAM on your computer:
http://oca.microsoft.com/en/windiag.asp

• 2. Review this article from Microsoft Developers Network: What does an NMI error mean?
http://blogs.msdn.com/b/oldnewthing/archive/2007/02/27/1769274.aspx

Finally, you may need to replace a memory module. If you need help with replacing the memory, please be sure to ask.

Have a great day,

Whenever I try to play a game (in fullscreen) or change resolution my screen goes white, then grey, then blue, and then multicolored! I have a Gateway One ZX6000 all in one computer and an Intel Processor....

This could be caused by either your graphics card being inadequately powerful to run the game, or your graphics card could be overheating. Make sure your computer is in a well ventilated flat surface when playing games (not on your lap). As a last resort, you can try reformatting your computer, sometimes software errors in the OS can result in problems. But it sounds like your gfx card is just overheating, if you are overclocking or have overclocked your graphics card, it could be permanently damaged.

Hello, I'm trying to play a PC game, when my screen turns blue and says "PC NOT SUPPORT". Please help!

I guess the game needs some graphics support and thats y it is showing blue screen and error message. !st know the basic requirements to play that game. If you dont have a graphics card installed in your system, then am sorry to say that you cannot able to play that game without that card. It is needed to accelerate your processor and it will also adjust the screen resolution according to the game

So my computer games have been lagging way too much. I use an HP laptop pavilion to play certain games like Call of duty, Crossfire, etc. and all of the games get around 20-30 FPS. What's weird is that...

My guess is that the laptop gets hot and then goes into a powersaving plan to reduce heat production, as a sort of overheating protection. If you want to stop this, run the game on a better cooled machine (dekstop PC) or get a laptop cooler.

Graphical Failure after 30 minutes

Nothing really you could do unless your good with a solder ....sounds like when if runs games it starts to over heat and the connection on the video output internally is getting loose. The system doesnt run as hard when it plays a dvd but once a game goes in it needs alot more to keep playing it ...i would take it to a computer repair shop or contact xbox them self i thing they extended there warranty's... hope this helped you out a little.

Blue screen error AOE 2, vista Dell 1520, G8600 video card

ok if your getting frequent blue screens your laptop cant handle whatever your doing on it, usually it means the power supply isn't powerful enough to run your gear or you've got to much junk on your laptop taking up memory try run a hdd cleanup wizard, if this doesn't work get back to me and we will go from there

My PC gets stuck...

Hey,
This could be a problem with the game's memory allocation. Try installing the latest patch for the game. You can find the patch in the official website of the game. Also try reducing the graphics quality by turning off anti aliasing.
Thanks

GeForce FX 6800 Graphic... Problem

Hi,
you should look for updated drivers - www.nvidia.com
If the problem persists, it might suggest a hardware problem.
It is a good idea to test the card in another machine and see if the same problem happens.(maybe in your friends computer ?)
