Hello,

I see you posted the PC has 3GB of RAM. Can you tell me what CPU and exact video card it has. The tutorial below will show you how to find this info.

The video card will not be able to play any modern games like Sims 3 or Modern Warfare 2 but it should play movies decently.

Download and install the driver below and see what happens. See if you can play any movies.

Can you do me a favor and link me to a screen capture of the error message? I have never seen that before.

This will show you how to create one and post it on here: http://www.cleartechinfo.com/How-To-Create-Screen-Capture-Share-it-Online

Thanks for the screen capture. I thought it might have been something else like a virus. Now that I see the capture of the error I looked it up and it seems to be a common problem for some people.

The way it is solved is to Update the to the latest graphic card drivers. Download the drivers from the link below and install them.
