alright recently in the last month ive been getting blue screens while playing games. it started happening after i got a new vid card *radeon 9800 XT 256MB*. i dont know if the video card is really the problem, but i was wondering if theres anything to worry about. ive never had this happen before. ive been told its just a system crash but im not sure. i wanna know if i need to do something about it. thanks for your info and time
 
Well since it started with that card, the card is at fault...

Are the problems on all games or are they on a specific one? What game?
 
The specific BSOD error will point you towards the cause. Normally these are driver errors, which can be due to both software and hardware faults. If you can find out what the error is it can be investigated further.
 
when the screen goes blue it says nothing also, it doesnt say the cause. umm i guess im a comp noob cuz i not sure what 4.4 cats are or BSOD. what happens is strictly a blue screen. nothing else comes up so im not sure, and the drives that dont have the OS on them shut down and the OS drive keeps running
