    I just installed a fresh copy of xp32, everything is fine until I want to use my dvd drive's. I noticed I keep getting the blue screen when I'm tryign to install Rome Total War. It's gotten so bad, even going into StartMy Computers makes my computer crash.

    Anyone know what the cause usually ocurring from?


    Specs :

    Intel 8400
    750i Mobo
    4gb of Corsair DDR2
    Cooler Master HAF case (It makes my system idle at 38c)
    260 GTX Evga
    800 watt modular PSU
    OS (windows xp 32bit)

    I can't see it, it shows and goes so quick. I think's my e-port, so far I updated the bios and no more problems.

    Hi

    Good news on the bios update helping potentially clear this up, but if you get this again and the message runs off screen too quickly, goto Right click My Computer > Properties > System Properties > Advanced > under Startup and Recovery click Settings and untick Automatically Restart as this will keep message on screen while you write it down.
