| 434175 | 2006-02-26 23:49:00 | I've have been receiving a blue screen error every so often while doing various tasks. The error states that there has been a hardware malfunction and that the system has halted, advising me to call my hardware vendor for support. specs are: p4 2.0ghz 512mb ram geforce fx5500, 128mb windows xp home ed. i have two minidump files, but im not sure how to post them. any help with this issue will be greatly appreciated |

You under warranty? yes. so your suggesting that it is a faulty gpu issue? |

| 434181 | 2006-02-27 01:43:00 | faulty video RAM, take it back. That's what I'd suggest If was the GPU you'd constantly have the BSOD |
