michael john williams Posted January 19, 2010 Share Posted January 19, 2010 My pc has completely crashed twice in the last 7 days. Perhaps a programme will cease or crash but not the whole pc. The screen comes up 'power save mode' and the screen goes black. The pc is till running but there is no control and the only way to start up again is to press the power, switch off and on. Whats happening? Just happened again in the space of 15 mins! Not sure where to start? Had 2 or 3 programmes open at the time - vectorworks, outlook and messenger - now is the problem with the pc or one of the programmes? Most likely to be vw as I was working in it at the time doing a drag and drop. How do you know if vw is causing the problem? And if so how do you fix it? Quote Link to comment
michael john williams Posted January 19, 2010 Author Share Posted January 19, 2010 Just running with vw and it went again while draging a wall - so the problem must be with vw - any suggestions appreciated. Quote Link to comment
Ray Libby Posted January 19, 2010 Share Posted January 19, 2010 It could be a lot of things, VW just tends to stress your computer more. First thing to try is to update your video drivers. Quote Link to comment
