    Xp hangs when playing games
    Im using XP, 40gb hardisk, 128 ram asus board , every time I play Battle Realms in the middle of the game my PC hangs and I get a message "microsoft just resolve a serious problem, would you like to send the problem".
    By the way the hardrive is partitioned and drive c: has 120 mb drivespace left , does this has to do with the problem?
    My Pc hangs then reboots.Please help me!! :'(

    Probably. With 128 MB of RAM, you probably have to make liberal use of swapspace while playing games. Your swapfile will have an upper limit of 120 MB -- when that limit is hit, either your OS will lock up, or it will start killing off processes.

    You need to free up space on your windows partition or relocate your swapfile to a different partition.
