So when I close games sometimes my whole computer starts to crash. Alt-Ctrl-Del. Doesn't work and than I have to force shutdown. When this happens my background (windows 7) turns a faded white gray and the little start menu icon stays normal. I can't click anything and it stays in this state till i turn it off. I just started having this problem and have no clue what can cause it. My video card is fine for the games im playing. It only happens when I close a game. The game stops responding and than boom my whole computer stops. Anyone have an idea why this maybe happening?

Sounds like RAM issue (after a game is closed the ram needs to be cleaned up, and if there is a problem there it might crash).

try running memtest.

Apart from that, it does sound like a driver issue.

I have 16 gigs atm and my drivers should be up to date. Its not every game just some but they do the same thing. I have never had this issue before, it kinda popped out of nowhere.

Drivers are up to date and i have 8GB of ram. And this not only happens when playing a game, it can happen when I'm on just facebook. I'm going to reformat or get a new harddrive soon. Hope it fixes it :p
