I was just wanting to get someone elses input before I went and spent more money on something that might not be the problem. For awhile now my computer has been giving me the "blue screen of death" ever so often. Most of the time when it happens it is when I'm watching video or something. I would get the usual stop error of "IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL". I did some researching and came to the conclusion that it was probably my videocard (onboard). I went and bought a new video card and installed it yesterday. NOW the computer works great when watching video, but i still get the BSOD periodically after so long of web surfing. The first time i get it, I reboot and most of the time I will get another stop error before windows has even loaded.. Usually if I let it rest for a while and come back to it, the computer will work fine again. I've checked the temperature in my BIOS and the CPU temp is 180F. I'm thinking that my problem could be the fan or RAM.. Any other suggestions, or how to fix my problem? Thanks
