    I just build a new computer and sometimes *more and more frequently* I get the dreaded blue screen of death. The comp reboots and POST runs w/o error and in a while it might happen again. Its only happened while using graphic intensive applications like video games and the internet so I thought maybe it could be the graphics card. What should I do?

    heres the specs...
    Biostar TForce6100-939 MOBO
    VGA BFG 7900GT O.C. (never had stock overclock could this be prob?)
    AMD X2 dual core 4400+
    2 GB ADATA D400 system mem
    HD 160GB samsung SATA2
    Zonet modem 56K
    creative audiology SC

    Too many possibilities ....could be that the ram is not seated well ....power supply is under rated ....graphics card is bad ....need the bsod error codes ....or go to event viewer and look in the system or application file for errors that match the bsod's.
