Solve : Overheating, perhaps??

Answer»

So, my computer is pretty old, I'll GIVE you guys the specifications:

2800+ AMD Athlon Processor,
2.08 GHZ with 1.00 GB of RAM.

Those are the basics.. now.. My PC crashes. Either it will freeze, or it will get a blue screen.. it only does this when I'm RUNNING videos or playing video games. I can be playing The Sims Social online and it GETS a blue screen, or I could be playing a video game and it will get a blue screen or CRASH. Now, my computer does have a lot of dust on it and I think that may be it, but I'm not sure. I need an experts advice.

Download & install HWinfo32 from "blue bar" at top. RUN Sensors Only or from main program window.Next time you get a blue screen ( I assume you mean BSOD) copy the code on the lower left it will be something like 0x0000f1 or something.
I think your video card can't handle it.
