I've been able to play on my pc now fallout 3 and oblivion and such. But now, since I format it and re-installed windows and everything when ever I try to launch a game, a "decent" game what people would call them. Aion, FO3, Tes:IV, R.O.S.E online, Flyff, you name it! My computer just shuts off completley a couple of mins into them

Did You Update Your Video Card Driver When You Reinstalled??

YES I DID ;D but I didn't update it BEFORE I reinstalled, that is whatss puzzling me. Oh and I probobly updated wrong cus I have ATI Radeon Hd "2300" Graphics and ON their website I could not fine one for that number so I jsut got 2400. Does it make a big of a difference? I will check google this instence and come back with updates.

Thanks again Night-Hawk coming to my rescue

UPDATE!!!: I found nothing of use, cus I'm really tierd and I got foreign but not so foreiogn after all language exam. yeppers the supposedly foreign lanugage is in my blood meaning It's WAAAY easier for me . But my point being I havn't found anything... ;(

This part puzzles me, if I uninstall it, will it be like a USB when you put it in the computer will automatically detect it and you proceed from there? OR do I go on ATI.com or something and get the Radeon HD what my number is again?

thank you very much

well ,,, all i mean by reinstallation,, ur video card has installation driver which u should have on cd brought with the card itself or u downloaded before from its site,its like any other application,, if u meant by detection like USB no,because u wont take it off ur computer,u will just reinstall its application

if u dont know ur card info from start menu> Run> and type " dxdiag"
a window will pop up,click Yes another will pop up click display and print screen... i get ur installation driver if u want
