Dear All,

Good day.

May you please help me with my problem, my computer always turned-off for a while and has this message when it comes back:

"VPU Recover has reset your graphics accelerator as it was no longer responding to graphics driver commands"

Kindly explain what does it mean, and how can I resolve this issue.

Appreciate all your feedback

You gave us no information about your computer, the version of Windows, or history of this problem. It would seem as though your graphics card (or on-board graphics) drivers are corrupt, or your graphics card is failing. You need to make sure the computer is clean of dirt and all fans are spinning. Check the maker's website for new graphics drivers and follow the instruction on the site to remove the old and install the new.

Download Speedfan (The download link is in the first line of the second paragraph), and install it. Once it's installed, run the program and post here the information it shows. The information I want you to post is the stuff that is circled in the example picture I have attached.

If you can a screenshot of the same as what I've included would be great.

To do a screenshot please have click on your Print Screen on your keyboard. It is normally the key above your number pad between the F12 key and the Scroll Lock key
Now go to Start and then to All Programs
Scroll to Accessories and then click on Paint
In the Empty White Area click and hold the CTRL key and then click the V
Go to the File option at the top and click on Save as
Save as file type JPEG and save it to your Desktop
