Only when using FS, or other programs? Or does it just crash by itself with no programs running?

you have a good system must be the installation of the game

this could be from a number of reasons. Start by answering the question above

Im thinking its just drivers, especially if you say it crashes as soon as you start fs. Is the crashing instantaneous or does it take a little while? What does it do? Freeze?

do you have a program called Asus GamerOS installed? If so download latest drivers, then uninstall Asus GamerOS, restart, install drivers, restart again that's what fixed my problem, part from my problem was that any games BSOD'ed upon loading points.

And just a thought, make sure you have a big enough power supply to run all your new hardware

Good luck Todd.

Sorry, the answer wasn't very clear (crashes on almost any program? FS, card game (?))... What programs does your computer crash on? Try different programs to see what effect they have...

If it only crashes on FS, then most probably you've got an FS problem. By narrowing down the types of programs your PC crashes on, the cause of the crashes can be narrowed down...

Hi Alex

ok just been in all my games

Joint ops
Flight sim
ricky ponting cricket
18 wheels
Arm A

crashes on all of them.

A couple of things that could be a cause I suppose (I'm not really a techxpert but giving details won't hurt...),

What are your Power Supply details (i.e. brand and wattage)?
What happens when it crashes (i.e. Blue Screen of Death, Crash to Desktop, system locks up/shuts down)?
