I have an older Dell that handles games like WoW fine. It has 4 GB RAM, a 500 GB hdd, an Intel Core 2 quad Q8200, an HD7750, a 550W power supply from EVGA, and is running 64 bit Vista.

I've recently been playing a browser based MMO called Eldevin. After a couple hours of play, my entire system freezes. My RAM is maxed out in task manager. Javaw.exe is using 2.7 million K memory. Java SE Platform Binary also freezes/crashes often. I cannot kill javaw.exe. Sometimes I'm able to exit Eldevin; most of the time I have to restart the computer via holding down the power button. Please help me troubleshoot this. I've already uninstalled and reinstalled both 64 bit and 32 bit Java a few times. I'm running the most current AMD drivers for Vista. Unfortunately, that means the driver and CCC are from 2013.

I uninstalled Java again and looked for traces on the computer. I found some Java files leftover, and I deleted them. I ran CCleaner as well. I also uninstalled Steam, ran CCleaner, and reinstalled Steam and Eldevin. I reinstalled 32 bit Java but not 64 bit. I've done /chkdsk and /sfc scannow. I've used Window's memory diagnostic tool. It's been less than 24 hours, so I don't know if it's fixed or not yet. The hard freezes take a bit to happen.
