lol thanks!
I am really confused - i have tried to make this computer actually crash but it just wont!! Prime95 torture test told me i had a hardware failure after 30mins on max + continuous music playing while it was testing. but it didnt crash - just errorred.
I have played 2 games for an hour, surfed multiple windows of IE and even ran folding@home, all without error. Yet my sister came in before and told me it crashed a couple times while she was using MSN and listening to a CD. maybe it just hates her, i dunno.
Any suggestions? this is baffling me.

unlucky!
It had better not hate my nan though - it's her first actually decent computer that will be connected to the internet. She paid £500 for a whole kit including a 17" TFT (that we didn't order but were sent!!!) and she really wants to know how to be able to use word and surf the net.
If it crashes on her it will dent her confidence because she is scared of breaking it - and i live 3 hours away!
