I bought a new computer about 1 and a half months ago mainly to play games. But when playing the games, it will either freeze and restart, or give my a bsod. Most of the time it just freezes and restarts, but i have probably gotten about 5 blue screens. I have been using Speedfan to monitor and lower the temperatures. When playing, i use a low resolution (1024x768) with medium settings on games such as guild wars and sims 2 to achieve 60 fps. I have tried playing oblivion, but it was extremely laggy with medium settings.
Here are the specs of my computer:
Windows Vista 64
Q6600 2.4Ghz quad processor
4 GB ram
Nvidia 512mb 8400GS
Now here is my question. I know the graphics card isnt the greatest, but i should still get pretty good performance from the rest of my computer right? I want to play games smoothly and on high settings, so would downgrading to XP or buying a new graphics card help? Id rather not buy a graphics card though. Would XP support my quad core processor?
Thanks
