Sometimes instability problems with your video card occurs. To see if the problems are caused by the card itself you’ll have to test it in the DirectX menu.

1. Click Start and then open ” RUN ” .
2. Type in the box ” dxdiag ”
3. In the menu that appeared click on the ” Display ” tab.
4. Now in the ” DirectX Features ” section click the ” Test Direct Draw ” and ” Test Direct 3D ” buttons. You’ll be asked if you see some boxes and logos spinning answer with yes or no, after you finish all the tests you’ll see the results, if you had any errors or not.

If you had errors the problems usually come from a instable video card or corrupted drivers.
