Greetings everyone
I am on week 3 trying find out with my problem, and why I keep getting the following Windows error while using ANY of my large applications i.e games etc. After a certain time I will get a windows error message saying

"this application has encounter a critical error

You have way to small a RAM. In order to play any games with grapic intensive play you need as much RAM as you can afford. I suggest no less than 512MB. Look at the event viewer in the control panel\administrative tools and check the application and system logs for any red X's corresponding to the time of your problem and double click them to open a details window with more information on the application or module that may have caused your problem. Let us know. {:~

This is a garbage answer. And please, you've been asked more times than
I can remember to quote some of the original poster's question in your
replies.

Hi, Ginsain. Thanks for providing the details about your computer.
Unfortunately, you haven't told us what troubleshooting you've already
done, except that you've been working on this for a long time. It
sounds to me like you have some hardware failures, though. Here are
generic hardware troubleshooting steps:

1) open the computer and run it open, cleaning out all dust bunnies and
observing all fans (overheating will cause system freezing); 2) test
the RAM - I like Memtest86 from www.memtest86.com - let the test run
for an extended (like overnight) period of time - unless errors are
seen immediately; 3) test the hard drive with a diagnostic utility from
the mftr.; 4) the power supply may be going bad or be inadequate for
the devices you have in the system; 5) test the motherboard with
something like TuffTest from www.tufftest.com. Testing hardware
failures often involves swapping out suspected parts with known-good
parts. If you can't do the testing yourself and/or are uncomfortable
opening your computer, take the machine to a good local computer repair
shop (not a CompUSA or Best Buy type of store).

Really think about that last sentence. If you are not skilled in
hardware diagnosis or just need a fresh pair of eyes, taking the
machine to someone will be worth it. After all, you've just spent 3
weeks messing with this, when the issue might be solved by a pro in a
few hours.

Good luck,

Malke
