Thank you for coming to this thread, and possibly helping me. I'm having problems playing Source games on this, and OpenGL bugs out aswell. While I'm playing Minecraft (OpenGL) I see the screen start to flicker, and it then crashes, showing a serious error message. Error Code: 1 (?) While I'm playing Garry's Mod or Portal, or just about any Source game for that matter, it will go a bit crazy, and replaces all letters with squares, looking like textures from the game, and quite constantly it will replace the entire game's textures, and change the HUD into one of the textures, just faded.

This is getting annoying, and most of the time it leads to a BSoD.
I can't get any screenshots for the reason above.

Thank you for your time.

You may have registry errors, driver issues, or both. Download and run CCleaner. http://www.piriform.com/ccleaner Run the Clean and Registry both.
Defrag and reboot.
If that doesn't fix your problem, you may have to uninstall/re-install your graphics driver.
