Mel,
I'm not familiar with the games you are trying as I don't play many games on my PC. I'll try and do some investigation this lunchtime

When you say Blue screen, i sit a 'proper' "Blue Screen Of Death" or one that you can recover from?

With teh games themselves I am assuming they don't run in a browser, if this is incorrect let me know. If they do then have you tried another browser?

Have you ever managed to run them (i.e. before your windows update)

The specs that Tinks posted are reasonably high from a Gfx chip perspective.

On teh BSOD, can you write down and post what teh exact error is please.

Also , try doing

Start--- run eventvwr

then click on "Application"

Look through teh entires to see if anything jumps out (These are log entries for anything that went pear shaped within an application). You can have a look at teh System ones as well just in case

Ian

I'll come back to you after lunch when I've had chance to do some more digging
