Hey all,
I bought my laptop a few days ago, it's a Lenovo 3000 N200 with a 2GHz Intel Core 2 Duo processor and an Intel 965 chipset graphics card.
I've been trying to get onto Second Life, but the longest I've managed to stay logged in is about 30 seconds before the computer crashes. The same thing happens with Google Earth. It usually happens when I start moving stuff around, such as walking in Second Life or zooming in on Google Earth.
The first few times, I got a Stop: 0x0000008E message. Windows suggests decreasing hardware acceleration, and also upgrading from XP service pack 2 to service pack 3. I've done both of these things. Since all this, Google Earth is working better, although still not that great - it's pretty jerky, and the cursor keeps dissapearing :S - but with Second Life I still get the bluescreens, this time with the error 0x000000EA.
Anyone got any ideas?
Wasn't really sure whether to post this here or in the hardware section...
Thanks for reading this, and for any suggestions
Tim
