I've recently resurrected an old laptop for a friends daughter for her to use. It's an old HP 550, which needed to be formatted - I re-installed Windows XP Pro on it and installed all the drivers for it from the HP website.
After about 10 minutes of playing a game good ol' blue screen of death came for a visit. So I checked out the stop code and looked up what may be the issue and followed all the formalities. Re-installed some drivers checking it with the Intel Update Utility which offered some newer updates compared to the HP site. Ran a memory test which passed with flying colors about 3 times. Updated Windows with over 200 hundred updates. And then tried the game once more only to have the same issue repeat.
I then downloaded NirSofts BlueScreenView to check what files may be affecting the laptop, only to find out it doesn't help me too much as I have no idea what the 8 affected files are or how to fix them. Any help would be much appreciated as I've been racking my brains on what I've missed.
