games causing computer to crash

[nlark34]

I recently built a computer for playing old games but nothing will play! Everytime I start a game, a few minutes later my computer will reboot and I usually get this error:

A problem has been detected and Windows has been shut down to prevent damage to your computer.

The problem seems to be caused by the folowing file: SiSGRV.dll

PAGE_FAULT_IN_NONPAGED_AREA

Technical Information:

***STOP: 0x00000050 (0xEEB4FFFC, 0x00000000, 0xBFA0E0D4, 0x00000003)

This is all completely foreign to me. I've had no luck fixing the problem myself because I know next to nothing about computers. Hopefully the more experienced users out there will help me out.

Thanks!

Sounds like your video card driver is having problems. Try updating the driver.

i tried updating the driver already.

you could try adjusting the page file size, and afterward, deleting the pagefile itself and rebooting.

also, run memtest on your memory. this might find your memory to be defective. good luck

Depending on the board you have it sounds like the chipset drivers are corrupted.
A little more system info would help.
