Well darn... that wasn't the problem. It just crashed the entire system after about 15 minutes. SOOOOOO.... back to the original request for information:
probably you graphics card driver. Which one do you use on which platform and operating system? the driver manager on my Linux Mint18 system says the driver is: amd64-microcode Version 2.20160316.1 Processor microcode firmware for AMD CPUs Which I guess is the driver if I was using the on-board video but I just looked at the card and written on the back is 'RoHS'. I wasn't to sure if that was the video card's manufacturer so I looked it up.... and it is. Now I'm lost..... I don't know how to find out the specific card or how to install it's driver:( On Sat, Nov 4, 2017 at 6:01 PM, Michael <[email protected]> wrote: > Thanks for inspiring me to look up the video card driver.
