Event viewer

I suggest you re-install the video driver.

I'll add a few words of explanation about Event viewer in a moment. They won't affect the need to reinstall that driver as your first step.

False Critical Error in Event Viewer

Hi Leo,

Yes, that is correct, that error is not an indication of any hardware fault, it is just the way that Windows has always worked, the Event Viewer can be daunting to look at, with the number of errors listed in there, but for the most part, they can be ignored and you can rest assured that Windows will handle those errors.
