Most failures are hardware-based, either from the video card not powering properly or the card itself is defective. Please do not post about unrelated hardware in this thread. Only Intel ones apply :) Tech Support IsAbsolutePath/path is not absolute How did I do? https://www.surveymk.com/s.aspx?sm=0o9_2bN8NdNe5k1ArM6eRbqg_3d_3d |

Also it's the one on Windows Update that people like to install :) Tech Support IsAbsolutePath/path is not absolute How did I do? https://www.surveymk.com/s.aspx?sm=0o9_2bN8NdNe5k1ArM6eRbqg_3d_3d |

by Datth | 28/08/2008 17:44:02![]() Edited the post to have people try updated 7/2008 drivers first before posting to test the crash (seemingly gone) and an alt+tab problem.
