You sure you used the correct type of ram or if your motherboard can handle that much? Are your graphics drivers up to date? Did you try the 1.7.1 beta?

Please try running a memory testing utility, like this one:

It's possible that the new RAM you installed has a hardware problem - running a memory check utility would help determine if that's the case.

You should be able to find updated drivers for your video card at nvidia.com

That's because you're using an illegal copy of Windows you dumb boob. WGA stands for 'Windows Genuine Advantage' which checks for bad copies.

Don't expect ANY help from us running illegal software.

You idiot, VR is still right. Try updating to SP3 and the most current updates.

How much luck do you have?
