I am having problems with my system crashing randomly. I originally put it down to my system overheating, which I have solved, and the crashes have reduced, however now when they occur it is always down to two problems.

Either:
Error Caused by a Device Driver
or
Error Caused by a Graphics Device Driver

Now I am running an Athlon XP 3200+ with NVIDIA GeForce 2 MX 64MB

I have ZoneLabs Security running also, I have recently installed new drivers, and I always make a point of switching ZoneLabs off when installing new software. However this has not solved my problem.

These crashes happen randomly when browsing, yet they happen EVERY time I play a game e.g. NHL/FIFA

Does anyone know away to discover whats going wrong, where, so I can atleast get a little bit closer to the problem?

Thanks
